Default X-PIPE or H-PIPE?

What is the difference between a x and h pipe..(I have a h-pipe now), and why should I go with one instead of the other? i plan on long tube headers, to h or x pipe, to some cat back system. I also plan to be supercharge'n in the near future!

H for sound...X for performance. Or ProChamber for best results! hehe From the looks of your car...you're more about sound/appearance...so stick with the H.

o/r H will offer just as much performance as the x, and if you go with cat back, the X pipe will sound really raspy imo

How can the H offer just as much performance as the X when the idea behind exhaust performance is the FLOW of the exhaust. And how is bridging the flow with an H just as good as the X?

The numbers between H and X arent that much different for one to be much better.... X does produce more power but not that much more
