Default X or H pipe

I have a 98 GT w/ SLP lm1's. Should I go with a off/r X or H pipe. What sound do I get out of both. What usually sounds better and whats the loudest.

Thanks, Jay

Stay away from the O/R H with LM1's. It is rediculously loud and kinda has a harley sound to it. Unless that's what you want. I have this setup and not a big fan at all. Probably going to be switching to a catted X soon to change the exhaust note.
