If you are just removing the large, rear-most resonator (not the smaller ones towards the front), you can go straight if you want. The sound is great, no drone, etc. I'm not too sure on x-pipe. There's a thread on here about it somewhere.

Thanks for the feedback SnakeDoctor
I spoke with a few people locally mixed reviews they say the straight pipe gives more noise but the X pipe is better airflow and increase HP......! I'm looking for a more aggressive sound in the low RPMs but not too loud when I'm cursing.......also plan to change out the tips to give it that E63 look......!

I can't speak to performance numbers, but it certainly sounds outstanding at low RPMs and sounds almost stock while cruising.
