X Pipes or H Pipes?

Still not sure if I should go with the MAC Pro-chambers (combo x and H). What's the pros/cons of X pipes versus H pipes. Also, how do aftermarket H pipes differ from the stock H pipes?

X pipes are a newer technology that have proven to offer a few more horse on a modular motor. I ran one on my fox and loved it, when I got up to 2.5k-3k it screamed.

The stock H on these car is the same as a standard H pipe...cats are what the problem is.

Go with the x is my opinion.

RE: X Pipes or H Pipes?

stock h pipes on our car are the best. in fact, the ONLY exhaust that has shown ANY hp gain whatsoever is the Bassani X pipe, but it doesn't sound nearly as good in my opinion as the stock H. H's SOUND waaaay better. but if you're all performance, go for the X, but in my opinion it's not worth it to upgrade our exhaust, our stock exhaust is great.
