Default Want to get an off-road H pipe, unsure which one 2 get

I had my flowmaster american thunder cat back installed 2 weeks ago and it sounds great but it is not loud enough for me. Here are my choices for and off-road H.

Pace setter

jegs

summit

flowtech

Mac

On the first 4 of those I have found that people say it has bad fitment and they leak so a am leaning for the mac but I am still unsure. please let me know what you guys have used and how you liked it.

Go on americanmuscle.com and check out what they have JBA, Pypes, and a few other companies make alot better product than the top four you mentioned. Mac is a pretty nice mid pipe also.

BBK and UPR both make pretty cheap pipes that fit pretty well...

Its been a while since I priced exhaust out, but when I did thats who I was looking at.

pypes does not make an H pipe for my stock headers same with BBK, UPR only makes X pipes and I am not sure about JBA

If want the highest quality, stainless H, go with MRT. If not, go with Mac. The first 4 you listed are crap.

BBK or Mac! Then add some long tubes (you'll wish you did later on anyway...lol.) and she'll sound real nasty!!!

Cant go wrong with summit. Its not expensive and the fitment, quality and sound are great for the money.

I dont know if this happened to anyone else, but speaking from experience (dimebag's x-pipe) Summit mid pipe MIGHT have a fitment issue with the drivers flange. Just a heads up

Can't say anything for the other 4, but I love my Mac prochamber. I bought it for like $75 used from a guy on here, never had a problem with it. Had the Mac catback installed first, but the prochamber really made a drastic difference in the way the car sounds.

Then you'll have to get a different mid pipe
