h def sounds better but you get more flow out of an x, so you really cant go wrong with either, texas speed offers an true dual x pipe setup, for the market iw ould go with an h, something different

I voted an X-pipe, but i'm going with more power, I myself could care less about a different tone, The X-Pipe is already mean enough. The only thing i don't like is the drone that i get when im driving. If an H-Pipe fixes that, then that's my vote, As far as power, all i've read on here is X-pipes out-perform H-pipes, I have no sources to back that up really, so i'll wait for the dyno results.

I don't have either one but if I were to choose it would be the X because its more popular. Now in the case that you start producing the H-pipe I would go that way because 2 or 3 horses would not bother me because I would like for my car to sound great as well as make awesome power so in this case i'm confused. Damn what a waste of a post lol.

I think he meant the double diamond SFCs that connect in the middle as well.

But Im voting for H. I had X, and it sounded great but the H's I heard sounded better. And any HP difference will be minimal.

Im moving back to Tampa in July, so if you need a car to fit...lemme know!

I also think it would be in you interest to try and fit them around aftermarket suspension pieces like mentioned above...

Most of the people that are voting want an H-pipe, so it seems. Yet, the X-pipe has more votes. Personally, I think that's because the people voting for the X-pipe are the people that already own true duals, and they're just voting for what they have.

IMO, if the X-pipe votes are coming from guys already with true duals, they won't be buying your system. The guys that want TD's and don't have them yet seem to want an H-pipe. I still say offer both, but I think the H-pipe is a great idea because not only will you be the only guy with an H-pipe, you'll be stainless to for around the same price as the aluminized steel guys. Good stuff!

I like the sound of the H better. On any V8 platform for that matter. As you can see I have a X on the 68. Its alright but if could do it over again, itd be a H.

Like others have said, no one makes the H-pipe for the masses. Make that and be the only ones. I don't think you're going to lose enough HP to make a difference.

X2 on the when will it be out and how much will it be? I am looking to do true duals soon, so hopefully it'll be soon!

I vote H because of the sound but you cant find any for f body's. A lot of ppl get x pipes. There are alot more available and a little more of performance out of them.

Ok just to let everyone know I have been watching this thread The way the vote is going I guess I'll probably try and make both an X and H set up since the poll is almost dead even.

Man, this poll really has me thinking about how my car will sound with duals...I can't wait for your H-pipe to come out! I wish it wouldn't have to take so long, but I guess I'd rather it not make banging noises that scare people near my car like the original y-pipe I have . Anywho, I'll be all over this when it comes out and do you have any idea what muffler you will use?

x-pipe here and i love the way it sounds and the way it performs and people r always complementing me on how the car sounds....there was this one time a race betweena viper and a turbo mustang....btw the viper won.....but anyways there must of been at least 10 cars giving chase and when we saw them leaving we tried to keep up and when i nailed it everyone looked at me after we all stopped at a publix almost everyone came to me to see what exhaust i had on my car even the viper guy said it sounded nice turbo mustang wasnt interested in staying around he just lost $2,000.
