Well technically I don't have it yet... UPS does. TBH I am curious what difference either will make on how it sounds. I have always found X-pipes to give a more "exotic" sound where an H-pipe seems to remove a bit of the higher frequencies. I know my '04 GTO sounded amazing when I installed an X-pipe on the stock exhaust. Damn I miss that car. Meh, I am so stupid when it comes to selling my cars...
I am going to try and weld the exhaust myself... how hard can it be? Doesn't have to be pretty! Now I just need to order a few more tools. I wonder if Northern or Harbor Freight sells one of those stepped exhaust expanders I saw a guy use at a muffler shop a long long time ago? Think of a stepped drill bit but...well.. its big and you whack it with a hammer! It expands the pipe just enough to slip them together.
