Xpipe question

I have the Agency Power Headers and straight mid pipe, can I use with this set up the MBH Xpipe? I want to kill the low end gargle.


tks.

If the straight mid pipes replaced your resonator, therein may be the issue. While some think this is a point of restriction (it is a straight through design) it does mellow out the exhaust tone similar to and H pipe. An X pipe is designed to enhance the scavaging effect from both cylinder banks.

Since the resonators are still on and essentially act like an H pipe, I think the X pipe for the mids might be the best solution. Bottom line with long tube headers it always going have a low end lumpy sound.
