Default mid-pipe

i have my MAC catback waiting to be installed but im trying to decide on which mid-pipe to get, because of emissions i have to get a catted mid-pipe but i want it to be as loud as possible, i was wondering if all of the diffrent brands were basically the same as far as the cats and noise levels
thanks

with a catted true dual set-up you would have to buy two cats and tell the guy to just weld them in right?

Explain how that frees up more HP.

Get a MAC catted h-pipe. H sounds better than divorced. I've listened to both side by side and the h sounded better. And might as well get a MAC midpipe to avoid any possible fitment issues with the catback.

true duals is the same thing as divorced pipes. also, the midpipe makes no difference for performance due to the even firing order of the v6. the midpipe is strictly for sound.

Because ur goin with two pipes and frees up more flow and y pipe is very restrictive. True Duals are bad ***

I meant no divorce (meaning no X or H pipe)

If it's not divorced and not an X or H, then what is it?
