Thinking Of Removing My Xpipe

What do you guys think? Will I lose power? It sure did sound awesome at the time. Here a clip with no xpipe.

Awwww dude, not even close. Without (to me) sounds like 68 Impala with long pipes....with it, sounds like a fine tuned German smooth machine.

Just my opinion though. You like it, go for it.

Leave the X pipe in, sounds way better. The other sound clip doesn't sound smooth at all.

Ya the only problem without the xpipe is the flutering noise at idle. Right now it sounds refined but back then it sounded very baritone driving around. I think Ill just keep it actually. Thanks for the opinions guys.

If you want it deeper why not do a H pipe?

Your sig clip definitely sounds better. Keep the X pipe.

btw, it looks like you replaced the three pointed star badge on the trunk lid with something else(?) What is it?
