C5 Corvette Z06 X-pipe Install and stock H-pipe comparison

[@jumicookie]

Sounds smooth ✨

[@vincentgirard99]

This is relatable for me because I'm completely stock as well and I'm looking to add a little bit of noise

[@C4VETTELT1]

The Xpipe actually takes decibels away!! It sounds more docile with the Xpipe vs hpipe but the scavenging is a bit better with the Xpipe. If you really want to change the tone then swap out mufflers. I put in a Xpipe system in my 92 from a C7 with secondary cats as primaries on the 92. The system was super cheap and sounds absolutely incredible!! The guy I got it from changed his whole system on a C7 grand sport and sold me the factory stuff for a crazy deal! I'm into my whole exhaust system from headers to tips for less than $700!!! The factory system on C7s are sick from the factory!! I have no idea why dude wasted a bunch of money for an exhaust system that wasn't much better than the factory system!!

That’s cool man 🔥

[@bethington81]

thanks for the video, just did mine last night. you were a great help

[@racingdreamz8021]

Just need a cam & some ported heads now

[@Robert-bg2nm]

stock H pipe sounds better

[@sebasbecerra1435]

Ever try X and H together?

[@swiftripper7557]

It's the midpipe section. Choose one or the other

[@raysegura6669]

Yeah living in CA and being a law abiding citizen car guy sucks I feel your pain 😂

Classic iron truck man

[@richardelliott8352]

I would suggest anyone swapping out parts because of the sound , to keep the old parts, because you might grow out of this phase. Just like only kids put cards into bicycle spoke to make noise., and adults don't. The original H pipe part had only a small hole, about the size of an american quarter, only to transfer an energy pulse, not sound, to aid exhaust scavenging. Not everyone wants to pull up to a nice place and sound like they are pretending to be Ricky racer.

[@vx4387]

yeah you’re old we get it

[@callofgamer24]

The X pipe makes it slightly quieter and increases exhaust flow, the factory H pipe is hot garbage.

[@CrossWindsPat]

Time for equal length long tubes lol. Still waiting on mine to come in!

[@ViperMods_216]

Nice

[@justanotheryoutubeuploader]

imo stock sounds better but it's your car

[@stereolababy]

so your opinion doesn't matter

[@nathanbingham3204]

Thanks man. Was looking for this lol

[@timothyhodge14]

My pleasure

[@chickengalaxygaming]

300!! Subs🎉

[@mokeozinga7290]

SLP Loudmouth and Texas Speed set up is what I'm going with. Gonna be loud but very beefy. I've got a Billy Boat PRT I'd sell ya;)

[@timothyhodge14]

I went with a Corsa Xtreme, video coming soon.

[@user-ry9ky8du1p]

Are you telling me to break up with my pipe? Lol I want to make sure I ain't missing important things

[@timothyhodge14]

Yes, split it with that pipe

[@peterb4143]

Nice, but needs mufflers or none at all. I think the stock titanium’s sound garbage even with headers (I don’t have them) so with stock manifolds no mufflers or corsas sound great, nice having both I can switch between the two in an hour.

[@timothyhodge14]

Picked up some Corsas recently, video coming soon

[@peterb4143]

@@timothyhodge14 awesome! I got my sports used for a little over 800. Wish i waited for some extremes though, might try selling them.

[@timothyhodge14]

@@peterb4143 I got my sports for $500. Also waiting on Xtremes to come on the market

[@peterb4143]

@@timothyhodge14 that’s a great deal! Still an amazing muffler, definitely leagues better over stock. I’m just discontent with the loudness so I still have the borla straight pipes on until the drone drives me crazy enough to throw the sports back on.

[@do5e]

👍

[@drwright7]

Not worth the effort or $

[@pjames4413]

i don't like cheap, so i would not buy the cheaper one

[@timothyhodge14]

It's just metal pipes welded together so a more premium one may or may not be better.

[@pjames4413]

@@timothyhodge14 True enough. I am preparing to install a complete PYPES system in my 1979 C3 Coupe. It includes a well-made x-pipe, and two of their Street Pro mufflers.
