not so much which one is better cause they both just offer about the same numbers, it's about sound, on a fox body, x-pipe all the way and on 94-95, h-pipe or prochamber. let me add, it has been said that the prochamber is the one that puts out the best numbers

WTF are you talking about 95vert? Fox bodies and 94-95 have the same motor, making the same sound.

X pipe's seem to offer more of a raspy "race car" kind of sound, whereas H pipes are more of a deep muscle car "badass" sound. I opted for the H pipe myself.

hell with both of you, i am fully aware that they have the same engine but i also know for a fact that the sound is not the same, i don't give a crap what both of you say. have you ever stood next to a fox and an sn with the same exhaust next to each other. the sound is not the same. i know the difference between the sounds of the x h and prochamber so i DO know WTF i'm talking about

Lets calm down folks, opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has one. My friend has an SN95 with the exact exhaust setup as me, the sounds are definately different.

Why not get the offroad? I have a pro-chamber on my 95 and just swap out my stock cat pipe when emissions day comes....only takes me about 20 min. now that I've done it a few times

I had an OR H-pipe on my car for 3 years, then swapped on an OR X-pipe for a week. The following week the H was back on and has been ever since. The H is more rumbly and the X is a little higher pitched. I could feel that the X pulled much better than the H at highway speeds, but wasn't deep sounding enough for me. Now the X-pipe is sitting in a box in my laundry room.

Well send me the X please!!! I dont think the H can come close to comparing to the unique bada$$ sound of the X.

Well it's pretty much accepted that prochambers make the best numbers, and in my @$$hole opinion, prochambers also sound better than both x and h pipes. So I would say get yourself an O/R prochamber and do the emissions shuffle if you have to.

I've had an X on my 95 a Prochamber on my '94 and now an H on my '90.....all offroad and the prochamber honestly was my least favorite. It was too quiet. The X roared when you hit the gas. The others just roared a little at idle and low RPMs.

Plus, theres a reason that the big QUALITY exhaust names only make Xs........

Did both cars have the exact same engine modifications as well? Because that also makes a huge difference in sound. Same pipe diameter? Same headers? Same midpipe?

I'm going for an X pipe whenever I get other priorities out of the way.
