Exhaust ???

[QUOTE='00GT5spd]On the sound clip given below, it says the guy has magnaflow catback with and offroad h-pipe, BTW I love the way it sounds. Anyway, if I were to get this catback system, would I get the exact same sound if I used a mustang tuning offroad x pipe instead of the offroad h?

00GT5SPD,

Similar, but not the same. Typically the "X" pipe has a raspy (is that a word?) sound to it.

not 100% I know what your looking for but, where i'm from i have a 00GT with full exhaust (BBK long tube headers, BBK shorty X-pipe w/ no cats, and American Thunder series cat back) which sounds very mean, i haven't noticed a raspy sound to it like a lot of people caim to get.
The other car i have heard with full exhaust is a 5.0 95GT He has BBK headers (not long tube for sure) BBK H-pipe and flow master catback. I hear more of a raspy sounds out of the H-pipe than my X-pipe. It could have somthing to do with his being a 5.0 and mine being a 4.6 but either way you want to go about it they sound real good and very mean.
This is what i've come to understand about H vs. X and that is that the H-pipe will give you more of a muscle sound like out of the 60's and the X-pipe will give you a more exotic sound like an Italian car would have, but with more of a muscle sound. Either way you choose to go you car will sound meaner. I went with the X-pipe because most GTs come with factory H-pipes.

H-pipes & Xs will always sound different, even given the same brand pipe. For the most part you'll get better sound out of an H-pipe but somewhat better performance out of an X. I like the way the X-pipe sounds on my car. But even I must admit that w/ my Long Tubes my car is extremely raspy, which I like. Also, when off the gas pedal & while the RPMs drop in gear there is an awful lot of popping & burbling. Very loud, but I like it that way.
