If ya'll don't mind my .02. The reason why Ford Motors respond so well to any type of cross-over pipes, is that due to the firing order, the cross-over creates the scavenging needed to pull exhaust from the cylinders. The x-pipe will work better due to more co-efficient velocity vs. the h-pipes that creates a cross-over but not very good scavenging pull characteristics.
If you're wandering how I got this info, I picked it up from Billy Glidden at an NMRA meet as he was explaining this to a friend of mine.

i want a mid-pipe too but am not sure which one. the bbk sounds good to me but it needs to be emissions legal with cats. i prefer a more american muscle tone than an exotic v-8 one and i'm willing to sacrifice a little power to get it. any help?
