WTB: Mike's Power Pipe (straight)

Hey guys, looking to see if anyone is interested in selling their power pipe.
I've already spoken with Mike about ordering a new one but figured I'd give the secondary market a shot first.

PM me with a price.


Thanks
Drew

I ordered LTH from MBH a few weeks ago. When that comes and I get it installed, I will be selling my Mike's Power "H" Pipe. So, if you want to wait around for that, I am going to be selling it.

Sounds good.
HMU when you're ready.

Off hand, do you recall what the difference between the straight and H was?

I think the H is just another name for straight. There are only two variations of Mike's Power Pipe - H and X. From what I was told, the "H" is the straight version.

The H pipe has a small pipe that joins between the two pipes forming an H like shape. Straight pipes are completely independent from each other with no x or h connection.

Mike MBH makes an X I belive.
The ones I make are either straight or with an H.

Does anyone know if x-pipe eliminates the gargling during downshifts. I gave my brother my C63 and when I had it, I had secondary and resonator replaced with straight pipe and the gargle during downshifts was amazing. He has ARH LTH with x-pipe and it seems there is no gargle. Anyone else experience this?

What? I have ARH headers and their catless x pipe. My car gargles and pops and burbles like the world is ending. I do suspect my tune (EC v5) is rich though. I need to see what the AFRs are though.

He also installed Row airboxes and AFE filters. He had the catted setup and today he installed the test pipes which are catless and still no gargles. Loud as heck but thats it

It's the xpipe. I had the same experience when going to the LTH-Xpipe from straight pipes.

It sounds like the tune is keeping it real. Reason I'm switching to the EC v6 is to see if I can get these sounds back.

Thanks brother. Maybe I'll tell him to try the switch.
