Pro Chamber or X pipe?


I have a 93 5.0 with the typical bolt-ons. I currently have a BBK catted h-pipe that hangs pretty low even on stock suspension. I have found a good deal on a Magnaflow off road x pipe or a Mac off road pro chamber. It currently has a pair of Flowmasters. What would be a better setup? I have Mac shortys. Thanks.

Any particular reason why? Will the Pro chamber be quieter or louder? I know the Magnaflow true x is stainless whereas the Mac piece is not.

The performance gains of H, X, or chamberd mid pipes are so close that they are unnoticable. But each one claims to give the most hp.

I understand that. the main issue was I am trying to get a mid pipe that has better ground clearance than the BBK unit. And these two units are good deals that I came across. Thanks.
