Wanting to get a Off Road H-Pipe for my 97GT and trying to decide between

1. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CIRA08?tag=p2069-20
and
2. http://www.ebay.com/itm/291000803962?

What one would you get, and this should just bolt right in right? Only replaced the stock mufflers and welded in some flowmasters super 44s

Thanks!

BBK is overpriced.

MAC FTW!

My car a LONG time ago with MAC O/R H and MAC Flowpaths

I had a Mac OR on my old 96GT. I liked it. But go to Ford and get an OEM exhaust gasket. The one Mac provides is crap and WILL leak after a year.

H-pipe sounds are about the same across brands. The sound differences come when you swap an X-pipe or a Prochamber.

If Ford dealerships don't have one in stock, Felpro makes one you should be able to get at most parts stores.
