I went through a lot of old threads reading about what mid pipes people where using. I was considering the P/C because I read that it gives more power compared to others. Any input would be great.

I heard the p/c made good power too, I'd like to get one some day, I wish mac made their stuff in stainless, or at least aluminized.

sound

Pick your midpipe based on what you like the sound of the best. X, H, PC, they are all within a few horsepower of each other for 75% of the horsepower curve.

No sense in picking one for the 3-4 hp difference up top, pick which one you think sounds the best.

That being said, the PC sounds really bad ass I had one on my Cobra and loved it.

they may sound good, but they dont sound as good as h/x pipes. I bought a pacesetter h. It fit great and sounds great.

I never owned one but hear they sound pretty good.(they are on the quiet side)
Your not going to notice any increase in power. And if you motor is stock you mite feel a lose of power when taking off the stock H pipe.

Everyone says that but I couldn't feel any difference. Maybe a 100hp I would notice up top but not 5.

It's much easier to feel low end torque loss.

The pro chamber is a GIMMICK. If you cut one open, it's inside are shaped like an X. Inside that box is triangular plates on the outer sides that give it an X shape. On top of that it also muffles the exhaust tone a LOT compared to a true X or an H. Lastly they're extremely over priced. Good for something different as far as sound goes, but not much else.

i got mine for 75 bucks with 2 flows...so it was worth it to me


i got a video uploading, i went over the car wash and made one.... your right..dose add to it with it.

imo a pro chamber is the way to go if you want good sounding but still very daily drivable.. if you want insane loud go X or H pipe, but for me since mine is a daily drive i want something that will sound good but not be overly loud to where you can not carry on a conversation in the car.

vids uploading.


here is one

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/577c0bf9-f86c-407c-81c5-9a1600f2f7d4.htm

How r they a gimmick?
This guy @ the track had one. He was pushing 400+HP N/A with a pro chamber, muff's to the axles with no tails! "TOTAL BADASS" sound! It was mellow @ idle but made a very unique 5.0 sound when he revved it!

Ryan, i'm not saying they're junk or not worth using, i'm just saying any power gains over an H or X are superficial if any, and that the big secret is that they're basically a boxed up X. I will stick with my comment that they're way over priced though, i think i paid about $250 for mine brand new which is ridiculous. I wish i could go back in time and slap myself before i made that purchase.

The part about making more power than an X or H is a gimmick. Cut open a Pro Chamber and you'll see my point. They're a boxed up X pipe. Period.


Also, you can run 400hp through a set of swing set pipes and it'll sound badass

Is it a true x pipe covered up with a box? or is it exposed to the chamber?

Picture the box.....now put an obtuse triangle plate on the left and right sides of that box. That's what's inside it. It's not exactly the same as an X, obviously, but the concept is very very similar. There's no "magic" inside that box that's going to many any more HP than a regular X.

With a pro chamber you are paying for a sound. One that you can NOT get with a x or h pipe. For the sound that I got, it was worth every dime
