What are your goals? Do you live anywhere where they do emission testing? I personally prefer an offroad X pipe with Borla Stinger type mufflers on a mod motor.
Correct, also whats the difference between the x or h pipe and does that go after the cats?When you say straight pipes I assume you mean keeping the mufflers and removing the cats just to clarify
The crossing comes after the cats. I strongly recommend a upr x pipe or vrs x pipe. The difference between the two is miniscule. The h pipe helps more with low to mid range power and gives u more of a muscle car sound where the x helps mid to high range and gives a slightly more exotic sound. This is all speculation as far as sound goes as I have never been able to hear much of a difference between the two. Back when I was stock-ish I ran the upr pipe. It fits like a glove and everyone swore my car had longtubes at the time when in fact they were stock manifolds.Correct, also whats the difference between the x or h pipe and does that go after the cats?
Definitely get rid of the cats. X-pipes scream at WOT but H-pipes give a lower rumble muscle car tone. There is no performance difference between the two, just sound.
Here's my car (old setup) with MAC catless H pipe and MAC mufflers

What lowering springs are u running nightfire?
When you do a Offroad mid-pipe on the 94-98 will you get any lights on your cluster, check engine light etc? If so is there anything you can do with the o2 sensors, to turn the light off?
removing the catalytic will not make a huge difference in sound but weither or not you have a stock pipe. what matters is if you have an H pipe (stock with mustang) or X pipe. i personally like the X pipes because of the loudness. super 44's arn't so great in my opinion. go for the loudmouth 2's or the cherry bomb extremes.
