I've got the itch to get more power, so I'm wondering if I should install an O/R H-Pipe. I've had O/R H-pipes on all my previous Mustangs, but I can't remember if the 2000 rpm Flowmaster drone got worse when I installed the pipe or not. Can anyone verify this with me.

Would the O/R X-Pipe be any different with the drone/power?

All comments and suggestions are appreciated.

X's dont really go with Flowmasters too well.

I have an off road h tied to my flows and its loud , if you like a deep throaty loud sound than yeah go for it. Around 2500 it gets kinda peaky, Wide open throttle is heaven.

if you want to go fast get some gears.

Their next on my list!

He said "X's dont really go with Flowmasters too well."

I thought he meant in general, X's don't go with flows to well That's what it sounded like.

Are you talking about the Flowmaster American Thunder? I have them installed on my Stang and I don't have any drone whatsoever. What do you think about installing an offroad prochamber with the flows will be like?

The prochamber acts not only as a crossover, but also as a resonator. My buddy has an offroad prochamber and weld-in super 40's on his 03 Mach, it sounds really good but a little "hallow," it kind of lacks a bit of that deep bass, not real sure how to put it.
