Even though our engine's are even firing, a crossovers do help, they allow the minor exhaust flow that needs to be balanced, be balanced.

The mustang specialist at the shop also told me removing my cats or doing divorced pipes, results in loss of torque and some horsepower, but I did it anyway (the removed cats not the divorced). I didn't notice anything except a slight increase in power towards the top end because I also had a pulley installed.

sound kind of weird. maybe it might help. personally, a good single is just as good as a dual setup. but, with duals you need a crossover, it helps with the sound and even though this is an even-fire engine, there are exhaust pulses that need to be balanced
why would it need to be balanced with a midpipe with an even firing order?
see the bold. nothing goes perfectly planned in anything with as many variables as an engine

yep well i had a choice of geting an H but I decided to go with divorces since it was 20 bucks cheaper lol.

I just cant believe how big of exhaust flow the divorces are creating,crazy stuff

Nope brand new piping they curved and molded for my exhaust.
I had my work done with pulley/belt, alignment, lowering, tips, and piping work, and all together it was around $1100.

Seperately it was around like $300 I believe.
