Any offroad X with Magnapacks is going to be insanely loud. I've got Packs with my Bassani catted midpipe and it's plenty loud for me. Alot of people go with just the regular Magnaflow system if they go with an offroad pipe.

I have Magnapacks and I'm going to add an O/R H pipe. For as quiet as packs are at idle (as opposed to WOT), I'm not worried.

I just installed a magnaflow catted Xpipe with the magnaflow cat back. I've installed pretty much everymake and model on these 2 valves, and I'm pretty much leaning toward this one as my favourite

I do not like anything from pypes.

I have a Mac prochamber with a steeda exhaust, and its loud. Thinking about going to a magnaflow x pipe for it.

Magnaflow catted X or a VRS catted X. Both are true X pips. I have the VRS with mine and love it. Don't go with an O/R pipe with the packs. My buddy had an O/R X and packs but it was to loud and it did not sound good at all. After running it like that for a year he said he couldn't take it any more and put cats on. Now his car sounds good again.

First off a o/r x pipe with Magnaflow Magnapacks is going to go
extremely loud and it could also attract the unwanted attention
of the pigs.
When I first bought my Magnaflow Magnapack catback I matched
it up with a SLP catted x pipe and my tailpipes and tips came out
crooked after install and it wouldn't line up correctly either!
I highly recommend getting a Magnaflow catted x pipe with your
Magnaflow Magnapack catback.That's what I have now and the
fitment is perfect.

Look up the prochamber and couldnt find that many clips, but from what i did hear i liked it alot.

Like how its not an x, or an h kinda in between, if i can see more vids of this or any links would be great to really make my mind up.

Keep it the same - opt for a matching Magnaflow offroad X-pipe.

I much agree that would be his best option catted or o/r Magnaflow X pipe.
I ran into a guy that had a Bassani X pipe and Magnaflow Magnapacks
and his exhaust tips didn't line up correctly either.

The only dumb question is the one you didn't ask.
The BBK gaskets have been known to leak and the quality of them
is questionable. I would purchase a set of Felpro header gaskets
and get Stage 8 locking header bolts.Just google it if you can't find them.
