Installed the new magnaflow H-pipe with high flow cats, and got rid of the extremely poor quality BBK offroad H-pipe. I got tons of low end torque that I've been missing, and I have a nice rumble as opposed to the stock car at WOT sound that I had before. I was expecting the worst with cats back on, but I'm impressed

oh yea, if anyone is looking for an offroad H, let me know. Mine has 2 months of use.

Also, thanks for all the help with timing and fuel ratio information, the car runs better than the day I bought it!!!

If you don't mine me asking, where did you pick up the Magnaflow H-pipe? Do you have a part # and price? I've been leaning towards the Bassani BX catted X-pipe.

Yea I'm a HUGE fan of the high flow catted H. The sound is awsome and the torque I'm getting was instantly noticable. I bought the H pipe from a canadian shop that sells directly to you and ships it from callifornia. You pay no taxes and no shipping. If you're interested let me know, if you mention my name they'll give you a discount. I got my catted H for $265, and it's one solid piece, not a crappy BBK 2 piece clamp fit. It seriously took me all of a half hour to put this thing on, and that was with one jack, a trouble light, a socket wrench, and two hand wrenches...and that's by myself!!!!! And just fyi, no I don't work for anyone, or get a comission, I just think it's an awsome product.

I did some searching last night and found that need-4-speed.com handles the full Magnaflow line up. They have catted H & X-pipes. That's an awesome price. Can you pm me with the ordering info?

I bought my Magnaflow catted H-pipe for $258 shipped from some place on E-Bay. At first I thought it was a joke since most other catted pipes are aluminum and almost twice as much. I've had the pipe for a year now and it still looks great, I question how good the cats actually work because I smell gas sometimes but my air pump tube is rusted so that might be the problem.

I called John @ Hottexhaust.com to get some info on the X-pipes. He answered all of my questions and had alot of useful info. Make sure you mention Stangnet cause he gave me quite a discount. I ending up ordering Magnaflow's stainless catted X-pipe for $429 shipped. I was going to purchase the Bassani BX series, aluminized X pipe w/cats for $400. It will be nice to get the stainless Magnaflow model for just a few bucks more. Just thought I would pass it on.

I live in Phoenix and I want my car to pass emissions. My last stang had an off-road Bassani X pipe and it was just a little too loud for my tastes. I'm thinking the two cats will make it just right.

yea I'm working on getting a sound clip of my car now that I have the catted H on it but haven't got the laptop out there yet. I'll tell you this though, it sounds mean still!!! If you listen to the soundclips in my sig. that was with no cats. With cats it's about 4 times quieter, but the tone is at least twice as deep and throaty. If you like the tone of your bassani x w/ no cats, you'll love the deeper tone of high flow cats. And oh yea, at WOT, it's still loud as *****
