X-Pipe?

I was just on LFP's site, and noticed they are selling Bassani X-Pipes, has any one used one? If so, have you had any read-outs on the dyno? Thanks.

I could be wrong , but I don't think a 'X'pipe will give/release any new HP. It will 'balance' out the two cylinder banks and may help in the 'scavenging' of exhaust gasses. Having said that, I would still get one, particularly if you are upgrading your exhaust system.

Mark has some 'good stuff' .

The X-pipe comes with the catback system, so there are probably hundreds of people who have them. There will be close to no gain at all on a dyno.

Cool

If the X pipe works anything like the H pipe (crossover pipe) then it makes more low and midrange power with just a touch more top end power. It does this by what Dan said above (scavenging exhaust gases which allows a fresher intake charge in the cylinders).
