Which is better for my catback?

[decoy562]

Which would go better with my Magnaflow catback: MRT catted H-pipe, or Magnaflow catted X-pipe? What is the horsepower gained from both, and does one sound deeper than the other? TIA

I've always heard that a x-pipe is better sounding with a flow through muffler type system. I have a magnaflow x-pipe on the way and have the same exaust as you so I'm hoping it sounds pretty good

Tell me how it sounds, thanks! Anybody else?

i would recommend getting a Mac Prochamber (what I run) or an X pipe.

The X pipe makes it sound pretty smooth, somewhat exotic sounding, but still recognizable as a mustang.

The Prochamber makes it sound deeper and still very different from your typical flowmasters, but still sounds like a mustang.

An H pipe and magnaflows sounds very deep, but also raspy and unrefined (not a clean sound). IMO it sounds like a beat up truck with rusted out mufflers, doesn't sound like a mustang at all.

Is the Mac Prochamber an H-pipe? Also, does anybody have any clips of MRT's H-pipe with Magnaflow catback? I didn't find any on mustangexhaust.

yes it's an H pipe, but not a traditional H pipe. Its almost like a cross between an H and an X because the crossover is so large.

Would it fit up to stock headers and Magnaflow catback exhaust? Also, is your's catted or offroad? Do they make both? Thanks!

Yes it will fit stock headers, just buy the one for stock/shorties, and it will fit to any catback. They only come offroad.

Damn! I gotta pass emissions here in ATL

I'd go with the X-Pipe... just because I love the way they sound. Its really personal preference.

just keep your stock h pipe and at testing time, swap them out.

That's true, but I don't have access to easily change it out myself.
