that's cool. just make sure they do a good job.
I also noticed some people weld 2 V shape pipes together instead of 4 small L shape pipes together.. i am not sure which one is better. but i think you should do some research 1st.

i found this X-Pipe that has less welds from Summit Racing, which means better flow.

hey i was wondering if somebody could explain to me if there's a difference in sound and/or performance between a true x-pipe made with pipes welded together and one made from stamped steel (such as the magnaflow one)

on many cars people have seen more gains from x-pipe than straight in dual exhaust setups.
Precisely. You want to equalize the exhaust pressure from both banks. It will increase power for sure. Also, Magnaflow makes very high quality products. I would definitely use their products on my car. I have in the past.
