I’m originally an “H” fan but I have to admit I like that higher tone crackling the “X” makes. I truly am torn between the two. The only solution is to buy two mustangs and put an “H” on one and a “X” on the other.😃
😂😂😂😂❤
My man! 💪
Lol I always say, if I can't pick one, gotta get both😏.
@@YoungBlood20101 I bought the first of those two in January. Haven't done the exhaust yet though. Doing the x first. 😁
Seen debating on getting an x pipe for mine rn have an H pipe and want to see what it sounds like paired with roush axleback
@@chrissanchez9218heaven that’s my setup
Personally, I like the sound of the H - pipe. That’s what I put on my ‘66.
H- pipe for me, had it and it WORKS
H-Pipe everyday of the week ... more classic muscle sound
Just my opinion but coming from music school, I would describe the X pipe as high pitch and the H pipe as Mid Low. The X pipe reaches a high frequency and “pops” while the H pipe kinds of sits more in the mid frequencies and just gets deeper IMO.
X seems to sound better to me on the mod motors and I think h on the push rods seems right to me.
Great video, guys! Personally I’m an H-Pipe fan for the Coyote era. Regardless, it’s really helpful to have a real world comparison with a vehicle under load. Keep it up!!!
To be honest, the cracking effect on the x pipe is sick, but I have to admit that the deep sound of the h pipe is crazy. Got 50 years to make my choice
Or not 😂
Definitely the H, tone down that annoying Mod Motor Rasp Ford has saddled us with since 1996.
Haha, I agree.
If you have a raspy exhaust with an X pipe if because your mufflers are trashy 🤣 the H pipe sounds like farting in a toilet 🤣
Tell me you know nothing about exhaust in one moronic sentence or less.......
Mod motors and Coyotes, by their nature and design, have a raspy exhaust, that's just engineering. Borla, Corsa, MBRP, Magnaflow and any other number of "trashy mufflers" as you put it can't change that fact. H-Pipes tone it down a good bit.
My 97 gt had that annoying rasp even with the H pipe
Actually all mod motors sound good til they went coyote. Coyote makes the best power. But previous 3v and 2v sound so good
The only thing done to my exhaust is Steeda H Pipe and I love it
H pipe for the win!!!
I went with an X on my Mach 1...just personal preference. I look at the raspy 5.0 sound as a signature sound similar to the 2v 4.6 flowmaster setups. Love all Coyote setups though 😊
That's wasy setup on my 03 GT. BBK X people with flowmaster 44 mufflers. Sounded amazing!
H-pipe. That’s what I have on my 12’GT. It’s a glorious sound.
0:38 X 0:56 H Start up
0:44 X 1:04 H Revs
1:15 X 1:34 H Take off
1:53 X 2:00 H Drive by
I tend to lean toward the X-pipe for the ‘15 to present because on these cars the two don’t sound much different. On ‘14 back, I prefer the H-pipe being these cars with the over axle exhaust give them a rich deep sound (old school muscle car). However, I have a Bassani exhaust for my ‘15 GT and their design I’d call a cross between the two. It still has a bit of the crackle but, a deeper sound than true X-pipes do.
The H suits the car better
X pipe with resonator delete and rear muffler delete will sound like a beast
Age old argument at this point. I think the X makes it sound racier, but H sounds deeper/better in my humble opinion.
On the '11-'14 5.0 S197, the stock H sounds awsome
H Pipe for sure 👍
I think the h pipe on the 5.0 isn’t the move, just in the nature of a smaller displacement v8. On an LS platform I think H like would be the move
Idk, I like H but then I like the X too. It’s hard to choose which one ima go with.
Not much of a difference, but In my *personal opinion* I’d say the H pipe 👍🏽
I have X pipe resonator delete, borla exhaust S type modified a little my touch, my Pony sounds like a lyon roaring, people love it 🤠...
X Pipe on Ford and H Pipe on LS
Maybe not pertinent to this car but my dad bought a 2.5” flowmaster setup with an Xpipe for a 69 mustang with a 302. Glad that’s the one I liked the sound better on, though at this point I would be happy with either.
H hands down for me, I hate the raspy/tinny sound
100% agree
That tinny (hollow) sound is from the mufflers…
@@Texas_Road_Warrior the mid pipe exhaust waves make that sound in the mufflers, remove or change the mid pipe and sounds goes away even with the same muffler
Just a side note, you're not suppose to use an impact wrench for the front flanges. Torque it down to 35lbs
H better sound on an auto, X has a better sound on an manual, to me that is
That smoke ring at 1:41 :D
That’s a fantastic video, thought I preferred the x but I’m thinking the h now.. both options still sound pretty dam good
Glad you liked it!
I got corsa 3 inch dbl x pipe and 100 series hi flow cats on my 2020 GT and it sounds nuts. Dbl X all the way.
100% H-pipe, mine will be getting that and borla axle back
Hi there I like the X pipe sounds heaps better than the H pipe
H-Pipe all the way.
These videos are really informative, good job guys
I have a Ford Performance Sport by Borla X-pipe + Exhaust. IMO Borla makes some of the best sounding exhausts on the market, that's what is going to really define the sound. I am constantly told that my car sounds more expensive than it actually is. (Don't worry, I know how expensive it isn't when I hear the creeks and rattles inside from all the hard plastic) That being said, I'd really like to hear an H-Pipe paired with it.
Full Borla S type catback with X pipe here. I get compliments all the time at stop lights
@@josephthornton3316 100% we have the same system then. Ford just wanted something to brand lol. I was able to get the gloss black tips though.
H Pipe for me. I have a Roush H Pipe fitted to my GT.
Me too, Timmo. Roush H pipe with Active Valve Exhaust. Best of both worlds, quiet on startup for my neighbours (great people) and awesome sound tearing around!
H pipe sounds much deeper and better but no crackling sound during shifts. I want the crackling sound during my shifting, X pipe is the winner for me 😅
Glad you guys make this
x pipe gives it the classic Mustang sound everyone can recognize without even seeing it
I like the deeper tone of the H
Everyone says the x pipe is raspier but I went from h pipe to x pipe and noticed that not only did it quiet my exhaust much more but got rid of the rasp. Also in this video I felt the h pipe had more rasp as well as a choppier idle. Doesn't the x force the the gases to combine more consistently? Whereas the h pipe doesn't necessarily have much eveness to it... does the gas always travel through the h or does some of it continue to go straight down the pipe? Also was curious what would happen if you ran an x and h pipe in tandem? best of both worlds? When I took out my cars stock mid resonator (2010 benz e550 coupe) I noticed that it was basically two x pipes in a case with some perforations and probably some packing.
H pipe clearly has a better sound. I want a mustang to me it's the best looking aesthetically..But it's so hard to keep a deep growl after the cold start.
My issue too. I love the cold start up sound!
H pipe sounds older fashioned. X sounds better in the higher rpm. It’s close
The x pipe sounds so much better! Fits the coyote high revving higher pitch tone better. In my opinion the H pipe only makes it sound good at lower rpms. After that it just doesn’t cut it for me
Agree. I had an h pipe on mine. Sounded great on the low end, but wide open sounded horrible. Got a Borla Atak cat back with the x and couldn't be happier.
@@thedude2897 yup that borla atak with an x sounds really good! Cant beat it
@@thedude2897 its funny when people say “oh H pipe all day sounds like a classic muscle car” NO IT DOESNT, modern high revving mod motors sound nothing like a pushrod v8 not even close! Thats why the X pipe and a nice sounding set of mufflers, and of course “long tube headers make the coyote sound so good specially screaming at 7500+ rpms reminds me of the Australian Supercar racing series 😍
@@hialeahhigh I have a 05 3v with American racing longtubes headers a catless H-pipe and borla ataks mufflers and it sounds amazing
@@ThatLoud3v but a 3 valve tho nothing to do with a coyote
Great comparison video! Thanks
I don't know what it is but the Gen1 Coyote sounds way better than the Gen 2 & 3. Gen 2 & 3 sound too high pitched for my liking.
Drive a 10spd Gen 3. Lol I had a gen 1. The 3.... Just absolutely quick
I have a Gen 1 with an H-pipe and straight piped from there to the rear. Maybe I got lucky, but my exhaust note is glorious. It’s docile when idling and under 3k, after that she’s like a raped ape. Everyone says it sounds amazing. I’ll never change it out.
H pipe for me!
With my longtube headers I’ve been considering switching my borla x pipe to an H pipe.. it’s just insanely raspy
I have the same issue. The problem is Borla do not offer H pipe.
Same issue here. I’m gonna go with a borla resonator and hope for the best
@@carlosgarcia9561They have a resonators H Pipe. It’s a ford performance by borla part.
@@carlosdeleon9593 I’ve been thinking of getting borla resonator mid pipe too honestly. I start my car up at 4:30 am every day and I feel terrible because the car is so loud and raspy even with the H pipe lol
@@5point0h67 Dont feel too bad. I had a Roush catback with my headers and it was so much louder than the FP Borla. I used to leave for work at 4am every day too lol.
X Pipe gives more power and louder 💪
H Pipe has better sound and quieter ✅
X with 373 gearing, American racing headers with magnaflow
A screamer with that setup! 👌👌👍
Yup! Magnaflow! I have them on my '16 5.0 with x pipe.
I like the idle of the H but the revs of the X 😅
Wayyyy too much rasp, you gotta keep resonators on and reduce the sound dampening of the muffler.
Corsa double helixx pipe
H 💯
can you put header comparison on a 289/302 long tubes, shorty and 180?
I like the H Pipe. 👍
Sounds like a 90s gm truck that’s straight piped with the H pipe. X pipe sounds like a v8 Honda if they made one.
Someone I work with has a h pipe and it’s sounds better then a x in person which is weird.
The H pipe almost makes the motor sound like it’s being choked. X pipe sounds a lot more free flowing and healthy
X- Pipe sounds better, but both sound way better than the POS resonator.
Well I don't know if I can keep watching you anymore because I don't own a Mustang anymore the ex-wife stole mine and sold it on me and now I don't have the money to go buy a new Mustang right now I own a 2013 F-150 four-wheel drive with the second gen coyote V8 in it and I'm doing things to it I'm going to make it into a truck Stang cuz I'm going to lower it down and put street tires on her and put a Mustang intake on her to give her more horsepower and at 85 MML throttle body and some catted headers on her also she's going to be a very sweet truck when I am done
Why was it smoking during the pull
A much better sound with the H pipe I think over the x-pipe I'm not Mustang so that maybe what I do on my truck
Buy both change each year lol.
So is this with the muffler because I have cherry bomb thrush mufflers and I wanna deletes the resonator but kinda torn if it’s gonna make it toooooo loud for me in the cabin. I put killmat in there but still kinda loud any help on this?
Why Nascar Gen4 sounds so good, X-PIPE
of all the exhaust cat backs for a s550, what would you guys said was the deepest with the lowest rasp
Deepest would probably be the Magnaflow but keep in mind deep comes with a tradeoff, usually more drone.
@@cjponyparts thanks
@@cjponyparts what do you guys have to say about the steeda cat back, it sounds pretty good and deep
Ive had all sorts on my s550. I think you’re looking for the Pypes Phantom H-Bomb cat back
I run open headers
H pipe + dual glasspacks all the way
what is better for a 66 289?
Same
For me sound same I don’t really see the different I tried both doble X and doble H
H pipes for trucks, x pipes for the mustangs is how my brain thinks they should be lol
X sounds like there is an exhaust leak. H sounds tight.
H !!!
Xpipe
X!
I'm considering getting either the Roush or Steeda H-Pipe. Which is better in terms of quality?
Just got the Steeda H. It’s so dope.
@@bnazzaro21 Where I live, the Steeda H-Pipe is a little bit cheaper than the Roush H-Pipe. Is there basically no difference in terms of quality?
@@samuelspontak2729 no difference at all. Both are 304 stainless. I would say if you’re planning on doing other Roush exhaust type mods then go with the Roush for things linking up easier. I have a convertible with active exhaust and the Steeda H and I can’t imagine adding anything more for sound. I was going to do a borla or corsa or roush but. Nope. Lol. It’s that good.
@@bnazzaro21 Thanks. I appreciate the help.
H pipe all the way, I prefer the deeper sound
H-Pipe all the way baby...
I wonder how an H vs X pipe would sound on like an Audi S4 🤔
X Pior!
H all the way!!
What’s with the blue smoke? 🙈
You might see a slight puff from the oil inside the pipe when you first install. Everything else was normal white from it being cold.
Both sound nice.. H pipe sounds like a truck. X pipe sounds like more raspy sport car
H fr
H 😎
H pipe
X sounds to muck like a ricer (and my weed-eater) to me. Going H.
H Pipe
Stock is better
X
H pipe sounds better.
H pipe
H pipe all day long
H all day.
Bro. Rule number one of exhaust clips, never use an automatic for your sound clips. Come on now. Other than that, great video
Just dont drive a coyote get a 4.6 2v for sound 😂
