Do I really need a H or X pipe?

An X will quiet down the more aggressive (aka loud) systems. It can add a little more power and its not as frequency sensative as an H pipe.

An H is a mere balance tube but doesnt do as much for scavenging, negative pressure balance, frequency control or sound quality.

Yep, I really see no "upside" to not running an x-pipe. To be honest I thought the only people the used H-pipes were the ones too lazy or unable to fab up an x-pipe.. lol

Magnaflow makes a nice 3" x-pipe.. It's what I'm running.
