Default Xpipe or Ypipe

Is there much advantage of the xpipe into 2 dumped mufflers over the ypipe into 1 dumped mufflers?

thats a new one. been told that there is no way i can tell the difference in the way my car runs without documented facts, but never guilty of making a insanly broad statement before.
in my application the car runs much better with the x and duals. biggest difference i would have to say (with my application) is wot, driving at highway speeds and anything above.


please be advised this is only this members opinion. your performance gains and conclusions may be different based upon your own vehicle and what you like.

xpipe will scavenge more and create more tq than a ypipe setup. Should also translate into more hp.

Y pipe is junk when you compare it to a H or X pipe and thats a fact...
