dont get off road x with slp lm1's....sounds nasty....

Lefty · January 7th, 2009, 09:15 AM

^ I wouldn't get the LM1's regardless of what midpipe I have. I really am not a fan at all. I don't really like raspy either. Low muscle growl ftw!

i say both are great, all depends on the person and i myself have a o/r x pipe with flow super 40's and i love the sound and yes i even have a v6 right now which it doesnt even sound half bad. i love loud and raspy but love the low deep growl, the x pipe will give you both and h will give both, just all depends on the muffler and pipe sizing, but its all a personal preference thing.

carcrazy53 · January 12th, 2009, 04:07 PM

I think the h pipe gives a deeper tone

Lefty · January 12th, 2009, 04:08 PM

Some people will disagree but yes, H's tend to have more of a lower, muscular growl while X's tend to have a higher, raspier sound to them.

notfastenuff · January 17th, 2009, 04:02 PM

X pipe has more raspy sound compared to the h whick is a deep rumple the h sounds awesome on my car

diablosport12 · January 17th, 2009, 07:50 PM

X pipe all the way.. I have had both and the x pipe is a shit load better. Sounds better to

ReverendDexter · January 18th, 2009, 01:25 AM

I thought all V8 Mustangs since, oh, around '86 or so came with an h-pipe from the factory?

blakehunter316 · January 18th, 2009, 10:47 PM

I have an off road h into flows into tails and I have yet to hear a set up sound better on a 5.0 but stick long tubes into x into some good mufflers on a 4.6 I think that sounds like pure sex.

Yes. I've had a Bassani catted-X with FRPP Stingers (straight through) and with GTA's (chambered). There is minor trumpeting with the GTAs and no trumpeting at all with the Stingers.

So I agree....yet I'm wanting to try Bassani Streets (chambered) with my all-Bassani exhaust. I think they might be an exception to the rule above.

mrbill4 · January 20th, 2009, 08:53 AM

I like what I have, but I must admit my favorite is bassani. The cats would go if I could get it inspected. But then I like it loud, the louder the better, just like my Harley. Hopefully, it will sound a lot louder when I get the cams....I don't care about raspy,drone, trumpeting, listening to the radio or anything else. Just give me loud, but that's just me lol

IloveMYcar · January 20th, 2009, 09:20 AM

im about to get flowmasters with the H pipe. Is that a worthy combo? what would sound best with the H. I like the deeper sounding shit

IloveMYcar · January 20th, 2009, 09:58 AM

I want a borla but its $$$$$$$$ so flowmaster or SLP, whats better with the H pipe? I use to have a slp on my oldsmobile and LOVED it.

IloveMYcar · January 20th, 2009, 03:58 PM

C'mon ppl, im tryin to get this shit... but I want to get the best combo
