Speaking of pipes, what's the difference between the o/r and the regular h-pipes? Is it just the price?

O/R= Off Road use only. This means that the X or H pipe do not have catalytic converters(take out some of the harful emissions from exhaust) on them. A X or H pipe with catalytic converters costs more than a mid pipe w/o them.

you HAVE to buy a x-pipe for a v6. the v6 and V8 modles had different exhaust manifolds etc... and will not bolt up. They sell one here for a great price. go check it out. i have th elink in my exhuast sticky also. at the top of this forum.

Also, someone is sellin an off-road one for Long tube headers. The off-road pipe also sounds deeper in GT's but in V6's it's not really recommended because it doesn't change THAT much, and also your not guna pass Emissions. V6's need to run with a little more back presure, hence the cat actually kinda helps with this.
