Should I get the X-Pipe or save up for MHP headers?

Folks,

If I'm at 415 rwhp w/Eurocharged tune, CF DEL, AFE filters, is it worth removing the secondary cats, and replacing the X pipe. (Remove resonator, replace with straight pipes)...

If I went the X-Pipe route, what do you think my total gain would be and how much louder would it sound?

Or save up for the MHP header?

If I went with the X-Pipe first, would the header fit on or does it need to be retro-fitted?

MHP with X pipe.

Longtube headers and a tune on these engines are the win.

Some guys are getting 500rwhp with this combo. The car is an animal.

If you do go the MHP LTH route (ridiculous power), calculate some extra cash for an Akrapovic exhaust (3500$+), adding MHP long tube headers will make you realize how little sound restriction is actually done by the exhaust's end on the C63.

The sound is like a NASCAR! If you like that, fine, if not budget it, it's the only way that works. Good luck!
