have the Dr Gas O/R X pipe with my BBK LTs (best X on the market IMHO) only problem is that you have to weld the junctions togethor...so that means getting it in place, tacking it while its under the car preferably (could mark it with a good marker..but you MUST mark it perfectly...like we did ...we have done it both ways BTW, had 2 of them so far, one for stock manifolds and this one) then taking it out and welding it up fully. BTW this X does NOT have bongs for the rear 02s, so MILs wont cut it. Just have them turned OFF in a tune, and unplug them.

X-pipe sound like an ass thing is really up to each person. I personally hate it. But fact something like 70% of mid pipe perchoser are chosing X-pipe says that I'm an old school

To each his/her own....

An X with straight-through mufflers of any kind is going to be LOUD and have raspy tendencies. Be careful of noise violations.

I prefer the sound of the H as well.

it's not that loud. I have one with my SLP loudmouth II's and it's bearable... untill 5k rpm, then it does get a little much but not unbearable. I'm probably gunna change it out for an SLP one

I've also got the shorty H with my BBK LT's, not a fan of the X. Im also not sure of your gonna like the sound of an O/R pipe with the straight through packs. I use to have the Packs with my O/R H and while it was super loud, it wasnt deep sounding to me, more of a high pitched machine gun noise after 3k RPM's. I switched out to the Magnaflow catback and its muuuch deeper, just the way I like it. Its your choice, as to what sound you like better.

VRS makes aluminum or Stainless X-pipes, short or full-length for Mac, BBK, and other LT headers. VRS x-pipes are a true x and are high quality as well, and wont break the bank. check them out.

http://www.vrsexhaust.com/X-PIPES/x-pipes.html scroll down a little past half-way down the page. they are designed specifically for BBK LTs.

only $160 for a shorty o/r x, and $220 if you want stainless. if you want cats the price goes up, as with any mid-pipe.
