Default Building true duals

Is there any advantages in building "X" or "H" true duals? And if i should go about this, what kind of metal should i look into?, except for Ti.
Thanks!

There are two options for duals: xpipe or hpipe.

xpipe will scavenge exhaust gases better, which will lead to more tq. Hpipe will sound a little better (deeper), but won't perform as good.

I would look into stainless steel or aluminized steel.

when i did mine i just got some pipe made for exhaust systems. i think most places use the aluminized steel. stainless would proably be pretty expensive. I went x pipe with mine.
