MAC O/R H pipe fits great with no problems, fits better than the factory mid pipe

bbk o/r h for shorty headers - perfect fit. pacesetter o/r x for longtubes - horrible fit.

The bbk and the mac seem to fit just right. I have used both and had no problems with either one.

Do both the mac and bbk sound about the same? I mean there isnt anything different about them except for the price

Mac sounds a little better imo but yes if you look around a lot of people have problems with pypes midpipes. My friend installed his two days ago and they needed to cut 4 inches off

I found the MAC to be a little louder. I put a BBK O/R H on mine then a MAC O/R H on my wife's. I had shorty headers, she has stock manifolds. We both have identical Borla catbacks. Hers was louder.
