I know the sound that youre talking about and I hated it also. I went with SLP LM2 and am very happy with my choice, no more popping, cracking, farting sounds. Not hating on the Flows as they sounded killer when I had a stock midpipe, but when paired with O/R X they sound like butt IMO.
Hope the Packs work out for ya, post up a clip when u get them on.

DO NOT use magnapacks with an O/R X pipe they sound like S***!
Just get the regular Magnaflows and they will sound great.

I'd used a catted X, catted H, and o/r h with my set up. You can definitely feel out which sounds like ass and which doesn't
I hope you likeopcorn: because you'll be eating alot of it with that offroad midpipe.
probly a stupid question but what do you mean??

The 'Packs have a good amount of popping to them with just a catted midpipe. With an O/R pipe it's magnified because the O/R pipe has a crackle to it also. Both combined means alot of

But hey, if you like that, then that's great. I've got the 'Packs, but I'm catted.

What? My personal experience is hearing popping exhaust all over town.O/R X + Magnapaks = POP
Everyone around town uses MagnaPOPs and they sound like total crap with an O/R X. Which is why I said to get the regular Magnaflows since the OP said he had an O/R X pipe.

I agree that magnaflows sound better with an o/r X, a lil subtle but still has the o/r feel. But as far as magnapacks go, H's sounds more poppy than X's.

X's almost always sound better with straight throughs

I've had all the combos with the packs: catted H, catted X, o/r H then o/r X.
The only thing i havent tried is the prochamber ...which really cleans up the tone of the packs, stingers and other straight through mufflers/resonators.
It's hard to tell in videos, but the offroad H is a little louder. The mid rpm crackle (~ 2700-3500rpms ) of the o/r H was significantly louder than the crackle with the o/r X... and the o/r H sounds a lot more like firecrackers or small gunshots.
An X pipe (offroad or catted) smooths out the tone with the packs. you'll get rasp with either offroad pipe, but its a very aggressive pissed off sound...doesnt sound like flowmaster's rasp/noise.
