Default X-Pipe question

I'm looking at purchasing a pair of Pacesetter longtubes. After the LTs I'd like to put some X-pipes on them with dual cutouts. Do I need any additional tubing after my X-pipes or should I Y pipe them into a singular cutout and then run that to my stock exhaust? Which setup would net the most power/torque gain and under which powerbands?

If you do an X-pipe setup like our true duals, I wouldn't mess with cutouts at all. If you decide to go with a Y-pipe, a single cutout in the I-pipe will suffice. You don't need dual cutouts off each header unless you just want it for some reason. The single will do the job though.

Could you price that without mufflers?
