X_pipe Or Pro Chamber?????????

[mike keirstead]

hey- i was wondering if anyone has proof of which makes more power .
MACS PRO CHAMBER OR THE BEST X-PIPE OUT THERE?
I am getting sick of my h-pipe sound and getting something new real soon. I love sound of the pro chamber and the x-pipe also sounds real wicked. But sound dosnt mean s hit sometimes. Any help would be great . thanks

From the comparison tests i've seen in the magazines the prochamber makes more power. But as far as real world stuff i can attest that the prochamber makes nice power but then again i've never been in an x piped car.

Most people I have talked to say the X pipe will make a little more HP than the H, but the H makes a little more torque. I guess its a low end or top end thing, it depends on what your looking for. My old X pipe got all kinds of compliments on the sound, but I really didn,t like it.

Prochamber > X-pipe > H-pipe

not sure exactly what the prochamber is except for maybe a muffler
which if that is the case what is so special about it?

but as far as x-pipe vs h-pipe
I have seen a few test done and the h-pipe might gain you a little more peak torque, but generally no more then maybe 2-5lbs/ft for like a 500rpm range other then that the x beat it hands down
BUT the x-pipe has a broader more usable torque curve
so overall x is better then h

supposedly the x will make more power

rx7speed - you dont know what a pro chamber is. MAC makes them.

this explains it http://reviews.stangnet.com/review.cgi?ID=147

itll be on my next fox

I read the reviews before buying, pretty much kicks every other h or x pipes butt in performance, and sounds nice too! Those reviews are all over the place , from budget stip cars to flow and tech sites. Mac is a pretty cool company when it comes to exhuast. I live 25 mins from their manufacturing facilities in Southern california

keep it real

Prochamber!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bgjohnson]

prochambers a unique sound and lound as hell when you get on it

 

[what_stanger?]

bassani X, stainless, enough said.

i don't see how the air slapping around inside the prochamber would flow as efficiently as the X pipe?

but maybe it looks different inside?
i don't know

i opted for the stainless X pipe without cats from bassani, works fine for me

 

[mike keirstead]

I think i will get the prochamber. They do sound pretty wicked. Thanks Fellas.

 

[dvsmike]

I have a Bassani catted x -pipe w/ 2 chamber flows. Sounds pissed at wot.

The Prochamber is without a doubt the best. I have had a BBK h-pipe and the Prochamber. The Prochamber OWNS ALL. You will not regret buying it.

I have also heard that the Pro Chambeer out performs both X and H pipes. I cant say from personal experience but it is supposed to sound real good. I would say go for the prochamber.

Since everyone is talking about how they sound, here is a clip of my car. The exhaust is BBK 1 5/8" shorties, 2 1/2" Prochamber, and 2 1/2" Magnaflow cat-bak. The motor at the time was stock heads and cam.

it seems most ppl here and even on the prochamber site are comparing it to an hpipe

which it might be better
but I think an x would work better then a prochamber
