how are they coming along? Saving my money so I can get the headers and h pipe set up. Would love it if they went over the axle but will still probably buy if they are dumped.

Did you decide if it'll be an H-pipe, X-pipe or both options? And have you decided if it'll be dumps our out the back?

my bad, lack of reading completely strikes again. yeah, for a new system being looked at for R&D an H pipe setup would be nice, like was said there are several options for the X setup already.

You said earlier that you where going to make your own muffler for it. Will there be multiple mufflers to choose from or just one?

Iv got news for you. The only difference in sound between H in X is with the H you hear the individual pulses where the X is smooth. H being slightly deeper as well. Iv had both and the difference in minimal.

But that's exactly what I'm talking about. I want the pulses and the depth. If I were happy I'd be satisfied with the y-pipe. I think these cars sound like crap with a y-pipe as far as V8 muscle cars go. From every clip I've heard, the single chamber Flowmasters sound completely different with an X-pipe than with an H-pipe, and the H-pipe blows it away. I'm very picky with sound.
