Power is about the same for both.

I've used both, they also sound the same to me.

I believe if your going to super charge your car later on H pipe is the way to go. Not 100% on this though so someone correct me if im wrong. I know I got JBA true duals and love them.

The x makes more power than the h.The x will have a more raspy sound whereas the h will have more of a deeper sound.

I have a bassani X pipe on my GT. It sounds better than the H pipe in my opinion. Can't tell if it added any performance though.

The x pipe will make it raspy when ya get on it and an h pipe will have a deeper sound to it. X is better for top end and an h is more low end, but ya cant really tell a diff in power between them. I have a bassani x pipe on my car also and i love the sound it gave me with my magnaflows. As far as an h pipe being better for supercharged cars isnt true, you would put down just as much power with a x pipe if not barely more.

And X is better for power but an H will sound better due to the firing order.

it's a matter of preference to sound. try listening to both then decide w/c one you like more. our v6 is an even firing engine so we don't actually benefit from equalizing the pressure of both pipes

i have an x pipe with no muffler and no cats, i also tried it with no cats and gt500 take off mufflers, it sounds AMAZING up until 2500-3000 rpms and then it starts to sound like a.... not a ricer but if you have ever heard a catless G35, it sounds like that, its not too horrible but it is coming from a muscle car, if i had a BMW i would love that sound.
