Question Mac H-pipe or Pypes X-pipe??

ok i have been debating between 2 types of pipes from the headers back. I cant decide between a Mac Catted H-Pipe or a Pypes Exhaust Catted X-Pipe. i know the Horsepower and Torque gains would be more than just a catback exhaust with a y-pipe but idk which would be better. i mean Mac Exhaust has been around a lot longer than Pypes im just not sure which would be more benifical in torque more than horsepower or which would have equal torque and horsepower gains i have heard x-pipes are really good for that but i dont want to base that on my opinion i would like the opinions of more people to help me make this decision any help will be greatly appreciated thanks

I'd go with a Pacesetter h-pipe. Cheaper.

There won't be much performance difference between any of them.
