Default How much HP?

how much of a hp gain will i expect from an offroad x-pipe...right now i have straight pipes and for most of all kno it sounds like crap...would it make a huge difference in power since im getting no cats and im also getting the crossover pipe to help balance out the pressure....just wondering about it....and is installation gonna be easy?...thanks in advance

An X-pipe will give you no more hp because you have no mods to support it. You seriously don't need an x-pipe for any V6. It would be wiser and cheaper to have a local shop make a cross over tube so you have an H-pipe. Also, you have striaght pipes?? No mufflers? That's also a big no no. If that's true, you're losing a very considerable amount of torque. You need to go with some flowmasters, dynomax or something and STAY away from glasspacks!
