Default which sounds better with 2 cham. 40's?

I have the Offroad H-Pipe w/ dual 2 chambered 40's dumped over the rear axle and was thinking about switching to the X-Pipe? I'm just looking for a better sound. I hear the X gives it more of a raspy/raw sound than the more traditional crisp sound of the H. What do you guys think? Should I switch it or just be happy with what I got?

Actually the x pipe will give you a much more toned and cleaner sound,since the h pipe is known to give more of a truck sound and which is more raw and just plain not as good sounding IMHO....in fact since i started to run x pipes you could'nt give me a h pipe and as a matter of a fact i just gave a o/r h away a couple of days ago,since to me there worthless..

well the only reason i got an X was it was cheaper than any good quality H i could find, and i must say i am pleased with the tone and the raspiness of it

you should get the H-pipe because it sounds better then the x pipe and i believe its cheaper to buy for your ride

Gold jacket green jacket, who the hell gives a ****.

No, really, do some searching on the internet and find some clips of some Hs and X pipes on some cars.

You get what you pay for...and all of this great knowledge coming from a guy that has 15' rims and "performance tires" in his sig for mods.

FOR SOUND ONLY THE H IS A DEEPER SOUND. THE X WILL GIVE A MORE EURO SOUND BUT IT WILL STILL GROWL. THE X IS SUPPOSED TO GIVE A LITTLE MORE HP & TQ.
