Default another conversion question

So I picked up 2 GT mufflers for my V6...only 25 bucks!!! Anyways I threw one on for now till I get duals. FYI even the one sounds way better then stock.

Since I already have mufflers where can I get just pipes? Every kit I see comes with mufflers which I dont need.

You mean mid pipes or axle backs? Well since our car only has a Y-pipe an H-pipe or X-Pipe would def sound better giving us true duals. You also need them both to complete an exhaust system... you can't have one or another. Also people say an H-pipe sounds better then an X-pipe, the X is supposed to give you performance gains but I read a lot it doesn't do much for our cars and you are better off getting an H.

Hope this helps clear some things up.

the pypes site should have the sections you need, or you can get the kit and sell the mufflers, you're preference. Even a dealer might be able to help you out. I have the Pypes kit from AM with GT takesoffs and It's great! Definately noticed a good amount of pick up with the X-pipes and the sound is great. H-pipes are more of an off road type of setup, and yes, x are performance. They both offer the same type of sound though
