jtstakelin nice car. It actually doesn't have that bad of an idol note to it. Maybe I should stop listening to my friend who turned in his 4.0L for a Cobalt. Well, I guess you run what you love. Does anyone have a vid with an H. It would be nice to compare as I think I'm leaning toward keeping the X Pipe.

Thanks man! BTW my car has ran quicker than this. I got it to 14.97 at 91 earlier this month. still stock tune with a CAI and duals!

High 14 with a mostly stock setup, nice.

Yup. It can be done. I'll probably tune it in the spring and be done with her other than getting the rest of my wheels and tires.

Right now I have one GT manual take-off on my v6. I am thinking about adding the second one to run duals. Is there some reason I need to have an X or an H pipe? Or is there some reason I can't just run straight duals all the way back?

The crossover pipes create just enough back pressure so you don't loose any low-end torque. Plus they help even out the sound. I haven't heard a straight pipe set-up in person so I can't really judge, but I think I've heard it can be too raspy

Maybe it's just me but at certain RPM's the straight pipe sounds a little cheap(Rice).

The straight pipe setup does sound ricey...but is it because of the straight pipes or because of the mufflers?
