They have a X looking piece thingy that may somewhat work but sounded like shit on my car(o/r with 2 chamber flows) between 2000-3000 RPM.(kinda like a marble in a tin can)A true X is when the two pipes actually siamese together such as Dr.Gas does.This is what you want. For budget purposes, other companies use true X designs also which are probably cheaper. I'm using a MAC X now, and while it's not the best fit and finish available,the sound quality is 100 times better than the Bassani i had (and it was cheap) <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Rhombeus50</b> <br /><small>Member # 2973</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,6,25,22,8,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> tru dat! just get the pacifica x-pipe. its manufactured by mac. got mine for $170-<br /> <br /> <small>[ July 25, 2003, 10:10 PM: Message edited by: Rhombeus50 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>sn8k</b> <br /><small>Member # 2350</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,6,25,23,16,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I just got the Dr Gas x-pipe delivered last week for the 03 Cobra.

Dr. Gas is MUCH better then Mac or BBK, I have had all 3 on stock setups and Dr. Gas is the best, however as you mod the motor more Dr. Gas is even better. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
