Right now I have an off road H-pipe and it sounds pretty good. I'll have to hear one with the x.

everyone has their own opinion on what sounds good, but the truth is that the x does infact perform better. sexystang even posted an article that explains it up above

I have a 95 cobra. I had a bassani X pipe W/ high flow cats . I didn't like the sound, more raspy then thundering. I went back to an H-pipe, but had Mac 1-5/8" Longtube headers installed and now have flowmasters . Great sound and greatly improved torque with long tubes, and MAC makes a pro-chamber similar to an x-pipe but it works w/ Longtubes, but spike 306 is right, everyone has an oppinion on sound, but the X-pipe gives more hp.
