Went to have my X pipe put on, amongst other things today - the passenger side flange that connects to the LT's is off by about 1 1/2" - I return the X pipe to summit racing, get another one and the 2nd one is off by 1 1/2 " - and I'm matching BBK X pipe to BBK LT's. Mind you, my BBK H pipe w/ cats fits perfect. Anyone else have problems like this?

VRS! they are made specifically for BBK LT's and can be had in SS or aluminized. I think its only $220 for the stainless and $160 for aluminized. And its a true X to boot

Dr. Gas is having supply issues right now because they are right in the middle of the beginning (make any sense?) of race season. They supply a lot of NASCAR teams with exhaust products, so that tells you how high up they go.

I got an H pipe now w/ cats, obviously I'm looking to get rid of them. I can get the MAC's for cheap, plus the damn thing is gonna be loud anyways I don't think I would notice much difference between the X and H

Most of the BBK X pipes have always had fitting issues. I know mine did any all the other BBK mid pipes I have worked with have.

My MAC fits perfect with no leaks and its been on the car for 4 years.
