bbk catted h vs stock h pipe questions

jzhgt02 · Mar 8, 2012

just wanna get some answers real quick on this

would switching to a bbk catted h pipe with just 2 cats make the exhaust sound different than the stock h pipe with 4 cats?

also would there be any hp gains?

thanks for the info

its the bbk catted x not the h.

It will be louder. Possibly a small gain in power but I have never really noticed significant gains with a mid pipe

I had that on my car last year it made it sound a little louder over stock. you can tell a difference. i dont know about any gain but i would think so.

alright thanks. got a guy selling one locally was thinking about picking it up. i have lm1s n just want it a tad louder. read that they suck without cats but i was talking to a guy that has lm1s with longtubes n heard a video n it sound badass. also heard bbk leaks alot so may end up just doing longtubes but i dont want it way to loud

if you do long tubes an not cats with lm1 it will be obnoxiously loud

yeah but it sounds really good. heres a link from a guy on here with the setup im looking to get, but am worried of it being to loud and was considering a bbk x with 2 cats instead of my 4 on stock midpipe to make it a bit louder.

I had BBK LT's, o/r x pipe, and SLP LM1's and it was loud. . . Got a lot of compliments though lol

You will feel a power gain and a shift of the power band up top. X pipes make more top end power and h make more low end power. It will be raspy and louder not as deep and stuff. Like a NASCAR sound not a 60s muscle car sound. Injave the off road one and with my old glass packs straight through mufflers it was stupid loud and hollow and annoying. Now with magnaflow it sounds amazing. Will gain 5-10 hp for sure it's 2.5" over 2.25" and 2 cars instead of restrictive 4 and they are high flow not stock cats def a good mod.
