Default Facory H-Pipe vs Aftermarket H



2004 GT Mustang: Iput flowmasters 40 series 2 chambers i guess on it but its not as loud as i want it to be any suggestions people tell me to get a cat back but im not too sure what a cat back actually does is it just bigger piping or what? and i have a factory h-pipe...what the difference if i buy an aftermarket one or a x-pipe? o yeah one more questions if i buy long tube headers do i need to pick up the engine to do so?</P>

back to the same point........Offroad x-pipe is the way to go.......listen to my exhaust on prev post and you'll see why, i also have the 40 series Flows..it sounds great........if you get long tube headers, then you'll have to buy the short xipe in order to fit. </P>

offroad h-pipes are louder if thats what your looking for, x-pipes may give u a few more horse but if u want sound go with an offroad h-pipe

Sound fast?..is that even a real statement, I like my car to sound like a V8, that doesn't mean is faster than yours........Police?..they cant do anything to you unless you are speeding. otherwise is harrasment.</P>
