I love my x-pipe. I have long tubes and flows. Everyone says dont put x-pipes with flows but I dont see why not.

I am looking into getting a new exhaust as well. I know for sure I don't like X-pipes, and also love the rumble of the prochamber.

yes.. please get cats, the 05+ stangs just don't sound as good as the 04-prior stangs without cats.[&o]

Depends on your mufflers Diff set ups sound better with each other some sound god awfull bad together.

Imo I think mine sounds way better without my cats. Just down right mean. I have mac axle backs & o/r h wichI might be turning into a custom pro chamber, we'll see......

I tried a few set ups on my stang, o/r h with stock mufflers, sounded pretty dam good actually. Then i got my macs and put my cats back on with the mufflers and it was just ok,imo it sounded meaner with just the o/r h. Then i took the cats out and added theo/r h back in and this is the end result. Just plain out nasty mean , vids never do it justice, the ground trembles at your feet when i pull up or drive by.I love it. anyway heres a vid of it.

I have not heard them in person but from everyone that has tried the o/r pipe and SLPs has said its TOO LOUD.....the sound is not clean either...most have been an o/r x which would be about as raspy as it would get but a few with o/r h pipes too

One this he has is LTs which should make it deeper so that might help but not for sure.
