Yeah i'm considering getting an mrt catted h as well. Beyond me why some people like the x over the h, h has such a deep nice sound compared to the raspy tone the x has, to each their own.

Anyways, had my friend do a couple flybys for me while I stood on the side of the road to hear it from the outside... My expectations were exceeded, to say the least. I was so happy with the sound of it, so mean and clean.

Don't know if I'm gonna go back to the O/R X ever again now. Thinking of purchasing an MRT Catted H now! The H-Pipe tone is so badass too...

+1 i had a bbk o/r x on my car with the mrt cat back and it sounded like crap raspy tinny and hollow. i got the MRT catted h and it is a way nicer soundin piece old school rumble and roar. i personally will never go back to the o/r pipe.

I like the x pipe better because of there being more character to the exhaust note. Its not just a big bassy tone. Its somewhat higher pitched and has more character at cruising speeds. I also like the little bit better top end that it gives. Sound though is just overall more appealing to me than the h. The only setup that i like h pipes with is with flowmasters or mac's. Thats about it. everything else sounds better with an x pipe to me.
