Default Exhaust systems with H or X pipe

I have bin looking for exhaust systems and wanted a duel but with an x or h pipe (pref. H). The only kind I have found was offroad H pipes. Do they really mean offroad? Do I need cats with the H pipe?

if when you say "do they really mean offroad" that its for a 4x4 then no thats not what it means. they just call it offroad for legal reasons. if your state has any kind of emissions testing, your car will fail. even some visual inspections will fail.

It's an h-pipe without the Cats.

you need an adapter for emissions.

Spintech has a catted X pipe, or one can be fabbed.

THey just need to cut the pipes after the cats and mandrel bend some pipes and weld in a segment between them.

I paid about somewhere about $120 for a custom set of dual exhaust pipes at a local mom & pop muffler shop. They just cut the pipes a few inches past the downstream 02 sensors and welded in a set of 2.5in. I also had them weld in the flowmasters I bought.
