Yeah, SW headers (1 7/8"), high flow cats, x-pipe, true duals, to now turn downs.

I could get a cold start and warm start video for you later.


How can you have "true dual's" and an X-pipe.

Right there its not longer true duals.

Still allow the proper flow of both channels. You're not bottle-necking it with a y-pipe. Running straight pipe back on either side would cause to much turbulence and you wouldn't get the benefits of having a free-flowing exhaust. From a technical perspective, you're right, it's no longer true duals... but I'll defer to saying it's what they named their system, haha.

X-pipe: Mid-pipes built with a crossover, or "X" shaped design, purposely cross exhaust streams to even out flow and streamline exhaust gasses through the rest of the system. X-pipes are generally raspier and louder than H or Y-pipes and have been shown to provide slightly more power than their counterparts. You are likely to see most of the power gains higher in the rpm band with an X-pipe.

I know the fluid dynamics of the exhaust and h-pipe versus y and x.

True duals is header to exhause with no crossover at all.

by running an x-pipe you balance out the exhaust / back pressure, thus you never get that true dual sound where you can hear the back and forth from each bank.
