That does sound like a good idea. Not sure of any H pipes. I believe that they would be easier to fab up compared to an X. So i doubt there are any? Correct me if im wrong.

do you mean you doubt there arent any? yes it does seem like it would be easier, just a straight crossover piece.

A shop would do it for a real nice price I would have to say. Thats what I'm trying to say. I am also going to get an H pipe. I thought about an X but the H pipe sound is what attracted me. I dont think there are any on the market that can be purchased.

i have bullets with 2.5 inch piping, and it has a hint of raspiness during higher rpm shifts. but its hardly noticeable and it actually gives it a nice raw old muscle car sound. with borlas or flows i doubt there woudl be any at all. im willing to bet with 3 inch piping it would probably eliminate any rasp at all with any mufflers. I think rasp is associated with pipe diameter , not limited to just the cats and mufflers...i could be mistaken though...
