X-Pipe Vs. H-Pipe Mustang Exhaust: Which is Better?

When talking about the exhaust on all 2015-2023 Mustangs you can't go wrong with the Steeda x-pipe or Steeda h-pipe! Both of these mid pipes are a great way to louden your Mustang while not breaking the bank or laws! These aftermarket Mustang exhausts are truly effective and worth it!

[@socalstangman4655]

I always prefer the H Pipe. I think it just has a cleaner, deeper tone.

[@newtaurus1]

H-pipe all day. X-pipe top raspy.

[@Thedjcodeman]

you're correct

[@yamahaguy1732]

On mustangs sure they are to raspy as is however on anything else an x pipe is pretty damn good.

[@herculesus8877]

Yep H for the bass. X too raspy.

[@S197-MARSHALL]

X pipe is superior in performance

[@S197-MARSHALL]

Im a simple man, Derek texted me that the video is up, i click watch 👌

[@kellymeade4587]

Great video with the comparison with the H and X pipes. Both sound awesome in their own way!

[@JR007x]

Definitely the most in-depth video on the H & X-pipe…thanks man, very helpful!

[@nathananthony2686]

Not only fun to make this video, but you nailed every nook and cranny of comparison between the two mid pipes. Smacked it!!

[@tonemack2981]

Most people seem to go with an Xpipe, of course it's a personal preference thing. I actually prefer the deep smoothness and clean sound of the Hpipe vs the more grumblier, raspier sound of the Xpipe. With the Xpipe you hear a bit more pulse and burbles throughout the rpm range. The Hpipe still has the pulse and burbles throughout the rpm range but it's a bit more smooth out, less defined, and deeper. When it comes to muscle cars I'm not a fan of raspiness so Hpipe is what I've been sticking too. Great video man this is probably the best H and Xpipe comparison just do to the fact both cars are the same with stock exhaust components.👍

[@quartercajun71]

Love how there are so many options and combinations with the Mustangs. Each have a little bit of a different sound. I have the 2012 GT with 1 7/8 Kooks long tube, to Kooks catted H, to Borla over axle, to Corsa Sport axle back. I love it, maybe because it's mine?

[@tlrprice7]

I have a Roush H-pipe on my PP2 and I love it! I get a lot of compliments from older guys that had Mustangs when they were young.

[@devion8665]

I fell off watching KZbin but I remember back in the day when you only had blue living at ur dads crib working at jersey mikes. Good times man love to see ur doing good still

[@TivonSanders]

23:05 This part of the video here helped me decide which one I liked. Before this I really couldn't figure out which one was better because they both sounded the same. Idk I guess I should be wearing my headphones, but thanks for this segment. The setup on your Mach 1 is a lot deeper and kinda sounds like the S650, if I'm not mistaken.

[@justinmiller9865]

H-pipe for me! That'll be what I end up getting installed on my car. Love that deep growl.

[@squidzo1]

man great vid. the rolling shots were perfect for showcasing the sound loved it

[@davidkucher5.0Coy]

I prefer the H pipe Derek, I have one on my S197 and I just like that deeper throaty sound. The X pipe sounds very good too. 😎👌👍

[@nacolthatsall5983]

I’m leaning towards the H pipe this time around. I have had the X pipe in the past but I like what I hear from the H pipe better.

[@DnRprodxIL]

My Hpipe paired with LTH and the active exhaust is an eargasm imo.

[@MrLuvtheUSA]

I think the newer generation coyotes (gen 2 and 3 especially) are way too raspy, so H pipe is definitely the way to go

[@DaDon_krazy]

@@MrLuvtheUSAbig facts

[@jasonfreake9020]

Great job guys. This video sure helps me out. X-pipe will be my first mid on my 21 Mach.

[@defi5]

I have an x pipe with long tubes and it sounds great on stock active exhaust. The ability to be quiet on command is gold

[@gruffski]

I haven't heard the H pipe in person but i did decide to go with the X pipe and I absolutely love it!

[@coltonsgarage4732]

Lots of comparisons out there, liked the fact the cars are identical other that what your comparing. Also the level of detail you went with each mode was very helpful. Ive watched this 3 times.. I think I’m going with a X pipe. The downshifts sound so mean! But sounds like you can’t go wrong with ether!

[@FordRules410]

I have never heard the difference between X pipe in each pipe, so I am looking forward to seeing the difference

[@Coyote9smilespergallon]

I’ve watched this a couple times, I just put LTH put my midmuffler back on and added the complete Mach1 exhau kit valance valves etc, ITS THE BEST SOUNDING COMBO EVER ON S550!!! Sounds deep like an old Big block!! Love it!

[@TheModAddict]

I Prefer X on modulars and H on pushrods.. but dont think you can go wrong with either like you said.

[@Kulick212]

Killers cars much love for the channel bro!!

[@devinhalliburton304]

Always a BANGER when Derek drop

[@techforge-Nate]

You are so right! The X pipe has a lot more rasp. To me it seems like the X pipe gives a more modern Euro style flavour, while the H pipe gives that old school 351 iron vibes.

[@coastalparasail]

H pipe for me , but they both sound amazing . I got the Corsa Double H Pipe from lethal performance 💪🏼🐎🇺🇸

[@riseupstudios12]

I love the x pipe and it’s going to be killer with the long tubes but definitely needs the off road x

[@CoryCinciNationStudios]

I have the corsa Xpipe back to the sport mufflers the blower really makes it sound much different tho! Nice video.

[@LifeOfaMatt]

Sweet video man! I have been looking at getting an H Pipe on my 2022 Mustang GT for the last few months. Something I got to get priced out ASAP!

[@MasterKenG1]

Awesome vid 👏🏼 Looking forward to hearing what Maverick sounds like with the kooks headers with the factory exhaust 🤙🏼

[@GarveyMustangMan]

Thanks for this video, it helped me decide to go with the X pipe, I like both but I prefer the rasp sound, for some reason sport + mode is the sweet spot.

[@mustangstories]

I just got installed a custom made H-Pipe to my GT and at some points I feel it's too much haha The stock sound is very nice tho, but I never used quiet mode. Now I'm actually using quiet mode quite often. I had my H-Pipe custom made as I needed to install plates so I can easily change back to stock with the resonator as European regulations require periodic car inspections.

[@Kirby_5oh]

I'm an H-pipe guy. I've got the Steeda H-pipe on my 2020 GT/CS with their Aggressive tone Axle Back and I couldn't be more happy. But not going to lie that X-Pipe did sound really good as well how you have it set up on the Mach Uno. Guess I've only really heard the X-Pipe paired with Corsa Xtremes and its way to raspy at that point in my opinion. Keep the bangers coming and much love to you and the whole DBPSQUAD!

[@169abr]

Aye we got matching cars let’s goooooo

[@Kirby_5oh]

@@169abr Ayeeee!!!! CS isn’t for everyone and that’s cool with me. I love mine, and around here I see one every so often not like all the other models. Always have people come up and ask what the GT/CS is because they have never seen one. Makes me respect it more and more every time.

[@169abr]

@@Kirby_5oh yessir, my girlfriend has a black 13 CS and I traded my normal GT for a 2020 CS recently. They’re so much nicer on the interior than a GT, even a 401A GT has big differences in feel.

[@grayghost1423]

They both have a good sound. Im keeping my resonater on fotr now.

[@alysonrichardson8636]

They are both so nice!

[@nozopoke1782]

Very complete video, good job

[@414Chevy]

Just got my 2021 Mach 1 last Monday. Was going to do X pipe, but I think I like the deeper tone of the H pipe. Very thorough test.

[@Itsjustajoke12]

You got videos of it

[@BadgetotheBoneChannel]

I went with Steeda H-pipe and the Borla S type axle back. Really great sounding combo.

[@chrisgaines7291]

Same

[@McCarthyPark]

1st comment ever - just found the DBP YT channel today 6/23/23. I am Mr. Diggs out of McCarthy Park & P.A.P.A. (Promoters of Amateur & Professional Arenas) I can not afford a monthly patron sub. TY Derek. I am not a "car guy". I love cars. Big NASCAR fan - Mark Martin (FORD Maroon) was my favorite color for years. This video puts production into marketing. The break down of X-pipe vs H-pipe. Nobody has the time to break down. Your partners can use this video big time. So, Come to find out. If I could afford this - I'd go V-pipe. I like the raspy sound compared to the deeper hog sound of the H-pipe. TY again Derek.

[@blitz5.0]

I remember when I wanted my 10 speed now I got it after 1 year of grinding. Don’t regret it one bit Boosted 10r80 really a dream

[@gordydexter2615]

Derek great video dude‼️ I have always preferred to hear the H-pipe deep throaty sound; however, the X-pipe increases horse power by 10-12 while the H-pipe only increases by 4-6 Hp. I want to get my coming 2024 Mustang to 500 rear wheel Hp so I am forced to go with the X-pipe. Your car sounded awesome and didn’t seem too raspy. I plan to get Kooks headers and I have noticed that the loudness really increases with headers. I look forward to hearing Maverick with the headers. If your car becomes significantly raspy with the headers & X-pipe I will go with the Steeda H-pipe but for now I am leaning toward the X-pipe thanks to this video!!! Thank you so much Derek!!! Excellent video‼️

[@169abr]

Your mid pipe won’t make a difference, the new ones, if tuneable, will be long tubes and E away from 500whp.

[@DnRprodxIL]

​@@169abr it has to be quality E FYI. I'm still struggling to hit 500 however I left my cats on.

[@midnight347]

​@Grant Winburn they aren't tunable and they won't be other than Ford approved tunes. They're going to be very limited compared to s550s.

[@midnight347]

The difference between them is very little maybe 2 or 3 at the most it's within dyno variance idk who told you there was this big noticeable difference between h and x but you got fooled lol. H sounds better and hp difference is a wash.

[@skyhawkheavy7524]

H pipe does it for me, clean sound, deep and throaty. The X pipe sounds wild like the tone/overtones are not controlled. The H pipe really sounds like it was designed to produce a well controlled sound.

[@seanmccarthy6992]

i'm gonna be going with a Corsa extreme double H pipe cutback exhaust for my 2022 gt500 soon I can't wait

[@TheModAddict]

I had steeda sports on my SN and LOVED them.

[@uptobatentertainment]

That gray is beautiful. What a nice pair of Mach 1s

[@alexmorales5550]

Im going to say both the aftermarket exhaust systems sounds badass for both Mach 1s

[@GarveyMustangMan]

This helps a lot, they both sound great but I ended up going with the ford performance x pipe.

[@WayApp]

Great video!

[@ectorlopez8147]

Love it bro ❤

[@BruceLee-sw4ms]

I put a H pipe on My Mustang GT FN . It’s awesome - I’m happy with it . Long tube headers next.

[@S550STANG]

Video will never do justice at how diffrent the actual modes are. Sport and track almost sound the same on video but under load in person they are alot diffrent. Was surprised when I finally picked up my 23. Will definitely be getting a H pipe

[@zs1le288]

Great job. Love the H on mine. I want to have someone drive mine so I can hear it from the outside in person lol. The X is definitely a tad louder. Where did you the black things? overlays? for your headlights?

[@greekfrenchman4434]

I installed a corsa double helix yesterday. Everything else is stock, and i might just leave it like this. It sounds SO good

[@pennysimmons841]

At first I was sure of the first on but I think I liked the blue, makes me want a new one

[@thrwbackyoungn]

Currently running a x pipe from the previous owner but I definitely wanna go H pipe.

[@riseupstudios12]

Lol I just noticed your plates Derek I love it lol

[@arnoldkeen6393]

I prefer the X but the H also sounds good. It all boils down to personal choice. Whatever sound you like is the one for you.

[@BigTeXX88]

I like the xpipe. I had an xpipe on my 2000 gt wit borla exhaust and loved it

[@w.branch1096]

H-Pipe all day 😈 Great Video 💪😎 A little editing with X vs H, one right after another of each car back-back would've been great though 😉

[@acts2211]

Awesome video

[@JordanSVT]

These really are some of the best sounding Coyotes I've heard. Once you do a full exhaust on them that is very free flowing they just don't sound very good, they're loud, but not a nice sound. These setups sound very nice though, great tone on both.

[@midnight347]

This is why they need something like borla touring or mbrp street or something like that with a free flowing exhaust. Unfortunately everyone in the coyote world thinks louder is better and go with corsa extremes or borla ataks with their long tubes and free flowing exhaust hence why they're so loud and raspy and crap sounding lol. I heard a gen 1 5.0 manual with long tubes free flowing h and mbrp street and it sounded very good. Very deep and throaty.

[@darylthomas4676]

Thanks Derek! Now i want a x-pipe!✌🤑

[@chipanderson4768]

Yo Tyler- Try the no lift shift. Clutch like normal but do not lift on the throttle. Game changer.

Have the Gen2 S550 and have MAK race pipes with Thunderbolt 400CEL HFC's, X-Pipe and Borla S-Type axel back, the sound is crazy good! Will be changing my Thunderbolt's for some Gesi 300CEL HFC's and the future...

[@Ottobon]

Very detailed video, trumpet music is a bit distracting on mobile given nature of what this video is, but i like certain aspects of each and go back to my old conclusion i think i like hybrid style the best, i believe flomaster made or makes one, more like a box then pure x or h. Between the two i like more classic thrumbing and or choppy sound of H but only if or when it doesnt rasp.
