With the X you are going 2 into 1 and then back to 2 the performance exhaust shop felt it created more restriction vs staying with true dual exhaust, which seems logical. With the H you are staying with the separation but allowing pressure to balance if needed. If you look at my pics the H won't catch air but only lets it pass if it back feeds. Thus no blending unless one side has back pressure.

I'm sure they sound very similar. Who knows, probably tomAto vs tomahhhto. Lol

Default Question from a Ram guy

I'm new to Durango's. I've had Tam's most of my life and just bought a 2011 R/T because we now have 3 kids. Does the suitcase delete / H pipe add do anything positive or negative toward performance? I know the ram 1500 hemi's lose power with most muffler changes and most guys use mag aglow because there's no noticeable power loss. Have you noticed anything?

Did you do the H pipe or something else?
Any notable differences in acceleration anywhere?

Are any of you guys who installed the H pipe anywhere near New Jersey? I just talked to a local shop and they want $385. Forget that!

I guess my big question is, will this delete drive the wife and kids completely nuts? I really want it. Just looking for your opinions.
