Default Hooker X-Pipe

Alright a friend told me the Magnaflow x-pipe is good for only 3 rear horsepower. So maybe I want a x-pipe just for sound. So

does anyone know or care to comment on the hooker x-pipe that allows you to keep the cats on or not. Any comments I appreciate

it.[sm=americanasmiley.gif] Also is the hooker axlebacks really good for 14 rear horsepower? If so maybe I need to get those and

sell my Mac axlebacks. I'm not saying its true I just like to know if anyone knows about their claims.

I just installed the ford racing one, it definitely made the car quiet, I like the sound but I have'nt tested the car on the road yet.

o.k. so the pipe is more civil so how does that include any better sound. Maybe being that I have MAC axlebacks it wouldn't hurt the

louder sound that my car produces.

I have the Hooker X-Pipe and it didn't really make any difference in sound. The only difference is when you are at higher RPMs with the pedal down at a decent speed you hear that biotch and it sounds nice. I am doing Hooker Longtubes within a few weeks and am putting highflow cats on.
