X-pipe or H-pipe?

Moostang09 · 02-18-2008, 12:19 PM

Which one does what and which would sound best on an '08 V6?

Sorry if its a repost...

Agent Jones · 02-18-2008, 12:44 PM

h pipe, sixers have an even firing order.

this thread is purely opinion. There is no right answer

x pipe and magnaflow

cmschlatt · 02-18-2008, 11:14 PM

if you want more rasp then get an x pipe. if you want less rasp then get an h pipe.

H0SS302 · 02-18-2008, 11:49 PM

with a v6.. if your gonna add an exhaust i would use an h pipe.

l_shizzle_l · 02-19-2008, 12:01 AM

listen to some clips and decide for yourself, but a good rule of thumb is h pipe for v6's.

Go with o/r H pipe with MAC flowpath mufflers. They are cheap and sound GREAT!!! pm me if you need help finding them. -JM

Moostang09 · 02-19-2008, 11:00 AM

almost all o/r pipes are the same. no matter what brand you get its gonna be 2.5 inch pipe in the shape of a H. Buy a used one from someone or get a gt take off catted H pipe from someone with a GT that has aftermarket. Not sure if i would go o/r on a 6. Best thing to do is go on youtube.com and listen to different combos.

l_shizzle_l · 02-19-2008, 11:02 PM

I might have it washed and show at biffs if it dosn't rain on friday.

VCS_SSSTANG · 02-19-2008, 11:30 PM

Did any of you even take into consideration he has an 08 v6, and it doesn't sound anything similar to the 94-04?

Pypes mid muffler system is what you want.

After that:

Flow master or Mac

Magnaflow isn't bad

After that it gets super raspy[think of a pissed off honda civic]

well he did ask a specific question, so we gave him answers to that question. lol

Get an H since they are for lower end torque, X's are for higher RPM's. Our 6ers need that extra torque to give us a jump.
