thats not completly true. the horsepower difference of the 2 is unnoticible. the only thing you can tell is different is the sound. and in my opinion h pipes sound a lot better.

H pipes usually sound better on 5.0s, what catback are you running?

Barely true, 2hp, nothing you'll ever feel, sound is the only difference, unless one has cats and the other doesn't or diameters are different.
