Is that the specific setup you're looking to do? Just curious why you chose that one. Obviously exhaust preferences are very subjective. So many configurations.

Car came with a bbk x pipe probably about 8 years old I hate it , starting to rattle and vibrate where the heat shields are and just looks like shit it’s so old .

Does the BBK have cats?
I’ve always liked Borla exhaust but those Ataks or Stingers are terrible without cats.
Just a heads up if you’re considering a free flowing exhaust.

I found this out a while ago after I got my stingers that they are way too loud and obnoxious with my o/r x-pipe. Even accelerating normally they would scream. People would think I was trying to race at every red light. But based on cobras at shows i've heard, when paired with a catted x-pipe they change from obnoxious to a deep and aggressive tone. There is a guy selling a catted bassani x pipe for $200 near that I am tempted on buying, it just too bad i sold my stingers. I do have an o/f h-pipe that i'll try out before switching back to stingers

Yes I also have had your experience with my ‘01 and ‘04 cobras.
Stinger CB with catted X was great then I swapped to a free flowing MAC Prochamber mid pipe and it was stupid loud/obnoxious. Ended up swapping the Stinger mufflers for Borla ProXS generic turbo mufflers. Had the stingers cut out, the ProXS welded in AND then connected the under IRS pipes to make a ‘second’ H-pipe before the tips. Now that was the ultimate street Terminator cat back.

I wonder how an o/r H-pipe compares in sound to a catted x pipe? H pipes are known for giving a deeper less raspy tone, right? I just don't hear/see too many people run o/r h pipes

catted - softer
no cats - louder
x - rasp, use straight through "turbo" muffler
h - classic sound, use chambered muffler
