X Pipe vs H Pipe

Guys, while I suspect this topic has been beaten up somewhere on this site, I haven't quite mastered the Search function. I'm trying to decide between an X or H pipe exhaust design from TTI. Engine is a 383, warmed up pretty well. From what I've "heard", the H pipe design will give a deeper muscle car sound where the X pipe will be quieter. But the X may give more top end HP?

Any comments? Any videos with sound of either design?

Thanks,
John

X pipe supposedly gives a couple more ponies from what I've read. As far as sound goes, I have the x pipe on my 3" tti system and it sounds plenty tough to me.
x-pipe :thumbsup:

That's cool! Any performance reports on this sort of mod?
its gotta be a tad more hp with less restriction.....i would think :D

Back to back dyno test on a 1000hp car (880 at the wheels) open header made less HP than 4 inch magna flows with the tweak chamber. IIRC it was minimal but it made significantly more torque in the mid range and adjusting the length of the chamber moved the peak torque around. Pretty cool. BTW I didn't come up with the idea (I wish), my propeller hat wearing engineer buddy engineered it.

I have the TTI X-pipe, it sounds great. People say it has a nice tone. Extra power too.
