What is the difference between the X-pipe and the H-pipe? I heard that there might be different in sound. Which one is better? Any info would help.

an H will give you more low end power, and an X will give you higher rpm horsepower, however both pipes im sure would be within 3-4rwhp and torque of each other, so its a sound preference.
Same here. I just installed a Magnaflow X-pipe..sounds a little ricey.Originally posted by 1268Melberger
If you want the Mustang musclecar sound....go with the h. I just put on a catted x (Magnaflow) and I am not sure if I like the sound...most call it exotic sounding...I think it sounds like that, but also a little on the ricey side. I may be switching to an h.....

Well said! They are so close that it really is a sound preference. I had a catted X-pipe but wish now that I had gone with an MRT catted H-pipe. I never was thrilled with the "exotic" sound of my X-pipe even though I eventually got used to it.Originally posted by 11secCobra

I going to leave the magnaflow catted X-pipe on for the time being. I am going to do what CobraBob did...get use to the sound. If I were to swap it out..I would get the MRT catted h-pipe.Originally posted by 1268Melberger
Are you switching to an h....and if so, which one??

I think it depends what type of muffler (chambered or straight through) you have paired up with the mid pipe. All I know is I wouldn't call my magnaflow catted X & FR500 combo "ricey".
