$200 X-Pipe

Kelso Gringo · Mar 19, 2008

I only have $200 to spend on an O/R X-pipe. I found this on ebay:

I am far from knowledgeable about engines and exhaust so if someone knows of a better piece for the money, I would like to know about it. Thanks.

I've had the UPR one before. It fit good and sounded good. Just remeber to replace the passenger side gasket between manifold and midpipe or it will eventually leak.

Im using the UPR as well, its 159.99 so you'd save a few $$.

Edit: oh and remember if you dont want your check engine light to come on you might wanna look into some MIL eliminators thats like $60 later if you decide to go that route

The best for the money is UPR or one similar to it. The BBK one you're looking at doesn't sound that good according to many people who have heard it.

$200 is way too much for an O/R pipe like BBK.

SaleenGT2001 · Mar 19, 2008

i had the UPR one with my old setup and it sounded good. i'd go for that one

90five0oh · Mar 19, 2008

sp do different brand x pipes have different sounds? cuz the bbk i have on the cobra sounds like ****. if i can find one that sounds better then ill go for it at a reasonable price. does anyone have a clip of the upr?? i couldnt find a good one on youtube

Thanks for the info and the link. I will go with UPR since everyone gives them a good review for the money.

i will see if i can get a sound video posted up in the next few hours... may be a bad picture phone quality but hey i can give it a shot!!

Edit: I got a nice dark video of my car but the sound is still fairly decent.

I bought my bassani o/r x used for 175 shipped, had only 10k on it and stainless steel can't go wrong, plus bassani is the best x to buy imo

02nightmaregt · Mar 20, 2008

I have the bbk o/r x and i actually think it sounds great. I love the way x-pipes sound compared to everything else. I love the demented sound it gives our cars. I havent had any problems with it either.

FoxRod87 · Mar 21, 2008

I 2nd the BBK Off Road X. I've had it on my old 03 gt with SLP LM1's and now on my 96 with dynomax bullet mufflers and it sounds awesome.

If you were on a tight budget, you might want to consider mac.

The price also includes shipping.

At first I thought the X-pipe was only $45 then I saw that was for the 02 sensor extensions

UPR X FTW

georgio440 · Mar 21, 2008

UPR or Pypes, can't go wrong either way. Both are great quality, sound awesome (both sound pretty much the same), and have very good fitment.

gaskets?

I just ordered the UPR. Do you know if I will also need to buy gaskets or do they come with?

Black_02_GT · Mar 24, 2008

when we put mine on i think we just used some of the liquid gasket stuff... anyone else know of anything better?

crazystang05 · Mar 27, 2008

Dr. Gas X is the way to go.

I see in your sig that you have flows welded into the stock catback. I have the same thing on my '02. I originally bought a BBK x pipe and with the flows it sounded HORRID. One of the worst sounds from an exhaust that I've ever heard. Bought a Pro Chamber and I'm happy as can be with it. Since you have the flows I'd stick to a Pro Chamber or an H pipe.
