H-Pipe or X-Pipe or Pro chamber

tw3aK · May 7, 2008

I'm planning on getting a new mid pipe for my long tubes and Mac 2 piece catback with 3 1/2in tips. What sounds the best and what would give me the most power. Thanks.

I like my x-pipe but if I had LTs I would go with the ProChamber.

I personally have a H pipe with long tubes and like it a lot.........

X pipe, raspy badassiness

There was a magazine dyno test a long time ago, a catted H vs. a catted X there was no real difference in hp.

The o/r X vs. the o/r H; X pipe beat it by 7hp.

I dont know if its really true, I'm just putting the info out there.

Iv always heard/read that X is the way to go

X pipes are not only supposed to perform better, but the sound is unbeatable. It will make your car sound like a race car, especially without cats. The sound difference on my car was immediately apparent.

X pipe has better exhaust gas scavenging which gain more hp/tq over H pipe.

I agree. X sounds far better and you see better results with a x compared to a h. I've had both and I will never got back to an H.

If you plan on keeping your car, don't buy the mac stuff.
Mac exhaust products just don't last. And yes, i know from experience.
Bassani or magnaflow. It costs more, but you'll only have to do it once

I know a few guys that have Mac products. They are a little better quality then they used to. I helped install all of the exhaust parts (mid-pipes and cat-backs), and they have no problems to date.

Lucky I guess...

I prefer the H-pipe sound.

i prefer the x pipe. not just any x pipe either. the dr. gas x pipe is where its at. their overall design and technology is second to none as far exhaust goes. read the articles i pasted on the post.
