    Most people seem to go with an Xpipe, of course it's a personal preference thing. I actually prefer the deep smoothness and clean sound of the Hpipe vs the more grumblier, raspier sound of the Xpipe. With the Xpipe you hear a bit more pulse and burbles throughout the rpm range. The Hpipe still has the pulse and burbles throughout the rpm range but it's a bit more smooth out, less defined, and deeper. When it comes to muscle cars I'm not a fan of raspiness so Hpipe is what I've been sticking too. Great video man this is probably the best H and Xpipe comparison just do to the fact both cars are the same with stock exhaust components.👍

    23:05 This part of the video here helped me decide which one I liked. Before this I really couldn't figure out which one was better because they both sounded the same.

  • @russellreed3683

    As an old man (42) I'm really jealous. I always did X-pipes on my mustangs and v8 cars to eke out every hp vs an h pipe. I mean EVERYTHING. Back in the dark days when 200-250 HP was hot, why not. I didn't feel I had an option when seeking performance. But thanks to modern cars, it's just really a sound thing now. My sisters 05 v6 camry is faster than my first stock Fox Mustang GT LOL. We knew it back then in the late "1900s" and early aughts how the sound was affected. But we also felt it in the seat of the pants the X pipe vs H pipe (and MMFF dyno charts proved it). That being said, I still prefer the sound of an X pipe. And I've driven a ton of the newer cars with the factory active exhaust. Excellent. No more cold starts waking up the neighborhood. Nice work, love the test! And I'm so glad the next generation of hot rodders grew up with way more power than the muscle guys before me. Dark days no more!

But not going to lie that X-Pipe did sound really good as well how you have it set up on the Mach Uno. Guess I've only really heard the X-Pipe paired with Corsa Xtremes and its way to raspy at that point in my opinion. Keep the bangers coming and much love to you and the whole DBPSQUAD!

    Derek great video dude‼️ I have always preferred to hear the H-pipe deep throaty sound; however, the X-pipe increases horse power by 10-12 while the H-pipe only increases by 4-6 Hp. I want to get my coming 2024 Mustang to 500 rear wheel Hp so I am forced to go with the X-pipe. Your car sounded awesome and didn’t seem too raspy. I plan to get Kooks headers and I have noticed that the loudness really increases with headers. I look forward to hearing Maverick with the headers. If your car becomes significantly raspy with the headers & X-pipe I will go with the Steeda H-pipe but for now I am leaning toward the X-pipe thanks to this video!!! Thank you so much Derek!!! Excellent video‼️

    My new Shelby Super Snake came with a Borla exhaust that uses thier H pipe but it was to quiet for my taste. I get to be able to sell them through dealerships they have to meet the requirements to be 50 state legal for sound, but I wanted more. I talked to the people at Shelby America and they recommended the Borla Swithfire X pipe for it. I just had it installed and wow, the sound actually got deeper, and definitely louder. Everyone back in the shop at the dealership was all smiles when they started it up. That switchfire x pipe is a very unique design with crazy flow pattern which probably helps take the rasp out of it as it is a hybrid of a straight pipe and a x pipe all in one.

    H pipe sounds better on muscle cars in my opinion, especially on the stock Mach 1 exhaust which already sounds so good from the factory.

      @midnight347 Рік тому +2

      This is why they need something like borla touring or mbrp street or something like that with a free flowing exhaust. Unfortunately everyone in the coyote world thinks louder is better and go with corsa extremes or borla ataks with their long tubes and free flowing exhaust hence why they're so loud and raspy and crap sounding lol. I heard a gen 1 5.0 manual with long tubes free flowing h and mbrp street and it sounded very good. Very deep and throaty.

    H pipe personally because it has the deeper tone… I’m over the whole super raspy sound with the X.. plus H pairs well with longtube headers because LTH makes the exhaust super raspy by itself

    At the intro when he 1st started talking ( 0:26 ), it almost sounded like he was starting to rap, the way it sychronized with the beat!

    Is there any noticeable drone in the cabin from the X or the H?
