I love my x-pipe it sounds deep and throaty i like it without cats though it sounds so much better and smells good to like a real older muscle car without cats. But if you want to keep it legal it will still make a difference with two high flow cats over 4 restrictive cats.

I decided to be able to pass visual inspection. Magnaflow cat-xpipe sounded much raspier than stock w/ Magnapack cat-back. Adding BBK headers really smoothed out the sound... which worked good for me since I'm making much more power than when I started, and now I don't want to sound too loud.

i have already been looking into gettin a mac off road h pipe but i may need to keep it legal and put on a h pipe with 2 cats high flow will it still be louder if i do this? another ? for yah x pipe or h pipe what is better and sounds nicer
i've got stock headers, bbk offroad h, going to 40 series flows. i'm not under emissions rule, so i'm cool like that if u want EVERY LAST horse power, go with x-pipe. if u want people to LIKE your sound, go with H pipe.
