H-Pipe, X-pipe, Y-pipe

bircky311 · 02-23-2003, 06:16 PM

alright, I know it makes a difference where the H pipe/ X pipe goes on a dual exhaust and that if it's in the wrong spot it'll hinder more than help. What about singles and where the Y pipe goes? Is there a way to tset where to put it without hangin' duals? maybe some math? also, would it do me any good to hang duals the length of the car, and terminate it with a Y and single muffler? any insight is greatly apriciated. Thanx...

get a cop car exhaust. you may notice a little low end torque increase.
as for positioning the y pipe, it wont make much of a difference. If i recall, it already has a h-pipe, but it turns itself into a y for the single exhaust. get the true dual and be done with it. hope i helped.

spose you're right about the duals... now I need mufflers. What do you guys think about those straight through perf core jobbers on e-bay... you know, the ones that sound like **** on civics? They are Stainless and cheap.
