Yup, yup. Agreed.

Ideally, the H and/or X pipes are placed at the optimum distance in the exhaust system to help relieve the "exhaust pulse traffic" to increase power. Of course packaging can be a challenge, preventing us from placing them at the optimum points. But if the H and/or X are placed too far from optimum, they will actually hurt power output.
