H pipe or X pipe? what company?
 
my 2000 mustang gt 5 speed has a slp loudmouth exhaust with a mac h pipe. i was considering getting a new mid pipe. What mid pipe is better, H or X and what is a good company to get it from?

catted X...or if you like SUPER LOUD Off-Road X...lotta companies to choose from...UPR,Pypes,BBk,Bassani,VRS,Dr.Gas...

you have one of the better options to be had. An X pipe from bassani or magnaflow will probably gain you 1-2hp and change your exhaust to a raspy note but I really think you have a fine setup.

I have a bbk O/R X- pipe and it sounds good but is made cheap....

I have an x w/ my headers and i can't wait until I can replace it w/ an h since I hate the sound of x-pipes.

Bassani X FTW.

bassani x, my new dr gas sounds like SHIT compared to the bassani that was removed

H pipe will be deeper and make more torque. The X-pipe will make more top end power but less torque and have a high pitched raspy sound. The power difference is minimal between them so pick which one sounds better to you.

i have the upr o/r x myself. in the process of getting a new custom x made, and put the upr on the wifes car. not very emissions strict here in tn (for now), but i have always loved the x-pipes myself. just my .02.

I had the SLP Loudmouth w/ an o/r X-pipe on my GT. It had a funny sound from 2300-2800 rpm's, but once you got on it there's nothing like it. The car sounded absolutely PISSED at higher rpms.

I agree! Mac prochamber FTW! With that said I think the combo you have now is pretty damn good. Why waste money on a nother mid-pipe when you could use the $300-500 for another mod

i myself run MAC Longtubes+O/R ProChamber+SLP Loudmouth C/B
