What mid-pipe will produce more pop, burble, crackle?
I've got a burble tune on my car but I'm thinking to increase the volume of the pop/burble/crackle.
I'm planning on deleting my resonators but definitely something that has crossover,
which is going to be either X or H pipe.
Is there any loudness difference in those two? and
Would one produce more pop/burble/cracking volume than the other? (H or X)

There are hundreds of lighter, more nimble autos that fit the sporty description far better. Just sayin.

One person's noise is another person's music. To each his own.
I run a week long 1000 mile drive every year for Audi TT owners every year. In the past 2 years we've had a few cars show up with the gurgle-pop tune. It seems to be the "in" thing that has no effect on performance - just sound effects. It's pretty annoying to most everyone else in the driving line. Most people don't mind a louder tuned exhaust but the gurgle-pop is like driving near a continuous explosion of firecrackers. So we put them at the end of the line.
We have a lot of folks who tune their cars on the TT forums I frequent. IMO, the E-series is an excellent cruiser - not a tuning candidate for sports car performance. But again, to each his own.
