does the midpipe have any cats? lt's and an o/r midpipe will definitely free up that exhaust, but doing one or other, i'm not really sure which will yield the biggest gain (probably depends on what mods you currently have). other than that, installing a midpipe is tons easier than lt's.

well with either one you're going to get a nice small gain. on an npi motor, with longtubes you'll definitely feel an sotp gain and a slight gain in torque. if you have a good catback you'll see gains with the x-pipe. and with either one i'm sure your exhaust tone will be even better. in the end it really depends on which mod you're willing to do. swapping mid-pipes can take less than a half hour, while longtubes have a good amount of horror stories attached to them.

well still debating on if I'm going twin turbo but if I don't I want long tubes but the one with more power out put. Don't know if I'll be able to afford the twins
