Default my exhaust questions

ok, im looking at the mac prochamber o/r H is it any good?
this is going to be my first mod, i will be a little slower on mods due to the baby and all, any suggestions on if its good or is there better, i still ahave stock everything down to the exhaust.

im looking on summit, and they're pretty good on price, does it matter the form of H or anythign like that?

Not sure about the prochamber, I just installed a MAC H over the weekend. I love the sound of it. Be careful if you do it yourself because I managed to cross-thread the header studs and had to pay a shop to replace them.

I would get on Streetfire and youtube and listen to the different combinations of exhaust.

Few things:

I have weld-in flowmasters - Previous owner
I have this one I bought for $50 used with 200 miles on it, looked brand new: Mac H
This one you can take off the exhaust pipes and the H will fit long tubes - I plan on doing that within the next year
I can't imagine that the prochamber would warrant the extra 100 bucks as far as HP/TQ
If you get one of these, you wont pass emissions and will need to get a tuner or MIL eliminators

Do it. You will not regret it. Especially if you get some Flows or MAC catback to go with it... it is the sound of pure sex. That's what I'm looking to do

i dont have emission laws in my state.
i think i agree with you on the 100 after looking at it. i can get an intake spacer to go with it then, is it a dicret bolt in? ill have to have the sotker muffs for a while.

Both the exhaust and intake spacer are direct boltons, if that is what you are asking.

Also, I will take some exhaust clips this weekend and post if you want to hear it...

I had an O/R prochamber on my GT and I have an O/R H on my mach. The o/r H is definately a better way to go. The prochamber was too quiet and muffled sounding.

If you plan on getting a non chambered muffler/catback later on I'd get an x pipe though.
