X-pipe vs. H-pipe
I researched the net and this forum about this but mostly all I can find Mustang information. Well, give your opinion about which sounds better, gives better performance at which part of the rpm band, and anything else you can give. If you have sound clips between the two...post them up.
I've read where the X pipe gives you like 5hp over the H-pipe in the upper rpms but the H-pipe has better low end torque/mid range power. I have also read that the X-pipe is less raspy/smoother sound where as the H-pipe is deeper but is prone to popping when off the gas. So, I have an X-pipe right now on my 383 and just curious it was better for me as a street truck to have a H-pipe on my true dual system than the H-pipe. Post up what you know and preciate the input!!

I have an H pipe on mine, and I couldnt tell you the difference between the x and the h, but it does sound good. I occasionally get popping going downhill in first, but that's about it.
