Default True dual ?

I'm thinking of running some bullitt mufflers just a little past the cats i have the stock headers and was wanting to skip the x-pipe will this work? because it sounds like it would save me some money and what is the purpose of the x-pipe?

Sounds good to me maybe go with some side pipes.
That would be cool.

Loud is what I think he is going for. I love my cutout I think this would be the next step. I don't think it would be too much louder than say a loudmouth. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I know this will start a debate but the x-pipe is good for some more ponies and for a different sound.

Ok am not tring to start anything but why does it make more power. More back pressure or something. I do think it would maybe make it sound better. Thought am never heard one on a Ls1 befor. The mustang x pipes sound good. If it's not to much more hp than it's not owrth the extra 200 bucks for sound and a couple of horse IMO. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />
