I just have the H-pipe and I love the sounds it makes. I heard a set up exactly like mine with trual duals, and I could not really tell the difference for the life of me.

I'd be interested to know as well. I just got my duals installed last week; the Midas guys were gonna go with straight pipes but after doing some research I really wanted to add the h connector. If you haven't already, check out Professor Wizard's "crossover pipes explained" thread at the top of the 2005-06 Mustang forum (not 4.0 or 4.6 specific). He gave me some great advice about why to get an h-pipe, for both sound and performance reasons.

Wish I could give you a comparison, but at least I can say I'm very happy with the h-pipe setup. Nice low rumble; never ricey even when I really get on it.

Noir went from True Duals (the dealership didn't put the 'H' on) then added the 'H' at Meineke, and is much happier. Better sound, better performance, etc...

I had them let me start the car before they put the H in and it sounded good right at startup but after sitting a sec the car idles differently and the whole thing started to shake horribly. Once they put in the H everything was smooth.
