thank you.

i got my car when it was stock. only had an e-cam, shorty headers and O/R x-pipe with flow masters. it sounded badass, much better than the H-pipe sound i think.

You think?...I hope so..lol im going to be getting an Off road X pipe i already have an off road H pipe...I was told that with the new style super 44's the X will enhance the sound right now with the H pipe it has a 60's car sound and with the X it should sound more modern like a 4.6 kinda,..I was also told that the H pipe only allows like 4 cylinders to pulse in each muffler compared to an X which will make each muffler get the true 8 cylinder pulsation if that makes sense..All and all will it be louder or is my Off road H always going to be louder then the X ????

I think an H is always louder more of a drone, I will try to post a sound video of the X soon. E cam makes it sound even better, next mod in a few months.

i think overall it will be about the same loudness, but it wont have that bass-ee drone that 98.3% of foxbodys have. itll be somewhat raspy. but not like super raspy like some 4.6s sound, being you have a stock motor.

Thanks, but that was "street" driving at the end. The track is a different story, you wouldn't see me lifting off the gas some on the track. I try and avoid that on the street.

Oh wow I didnt think you even lifted your foot off in the clip, that was pretty quick for street driving.
