I have an O/R Bassani X-Pipe with chambered flows, my question is some people say I will make better power with strait through like some bassani or magna flows what do yall think, also of those two which are better?

SLP would be the best choice for power, but will be outrageously loud with that OR X. Anytime, you have a muffler with a baffle, you have a restriction. But, too much flow and you loose back-pressure. Your setup is prabbaly perfect if you ask me and I bet it sounds great too.

you aren't losing power, but typically people make a bit more power with straight through mufflers.
