I was wondering if I should run a bbk off road x pipe with 2 chamber flows or the bbk off road h pipe with 2 chamber flows? what's the best exhaust setup you guys?

get the h pipe if you got a 5.0, it will sound better, and setup of the h is better if your going with flows [patriot]

with the off road h I'm almost thinking about adding headers while I'm doing it. What headers would you recommend for the setup?

get the Ford Motorsport shorty headers, you'll be happy, but for a hundred less, the BBK shorties arent that bad... just dont get MAC

You can use an x pipe with flows, but an H might be better. Get some Bassani or JBA headers if you wanna spend a little for more quality, otherwise get Ford or BBK. I've got some JBAs, the quality is excellent, one piece thick flange for easy installation, very solid headers.

I run a set of BBK equal length shorties, off road X with 2 chamber flows coming out to a I think 3 inch tip. They sound really nice, kinda loud tho. [patriot]

FMS shorties, bbk hi-performance H-pipe, flowmaster 2 1/2 inch cat back, E303 = [patriot]

i had originally bought the mac ones but returned them. the quality of the FMS ones are much better.

I would suggest to buy the same brand headers and pipe, that way it will have the best fit.

www.mustangexhaust.com - go to the sound clips area.

IMO - H pipe with flows, X pipe with straight through mufflers.

some X pipe/flow combo's I've heard sound really bad, while others sound pretty good. Actually now that I think of it the only ones I liked had longtubes, the ones I didn't had shorties.
