They do install the same, and everything should still fit. It does help to have a second person to make sure the tailpipes are straight, and to hold them in place while you evenly tighten down the bolts.

off-road pipe sounds a heck of a lot better then one with catalytic converters, even if it is an x-pipe. Give the off road a try as long as you don't mind it being loud

h-pipe will have a deeper sound without the cats.. and if you run an x-pipe with no cats.. at wot it will have a high scream.. as the h-pipe will be a much deeper roar
