I was told that the X gives you more of a ricer sound. You might check
the Flowmaster web site and see if they have any recordings which
indicate an X in use. I have not been there in a while so not sure
what they have listed to listen too.

There's a site called mustangexhaust.com. I think you have to become a
member, but it's free. It's full of sound clips of Mustangs with different
exhaust mods. I haven't looked at the site for awhile, but it used to be
really easy to pick what you wanted because it would have good descriptions
like "1992 5.0, Bassani H pipe, Flowmaster American Thunder mufflers". You
might check that out.

IMHO you are doing exhaust work for the wrong reason, you may as
well own a Cvic. Taking your description literally, you need a big block
engine for that requirement.

I don't know about "ricer" since NASCAR is using x-pipes. It's just a higher
pitch more in line with an F1 type of sound. It's definitely not the deep
throaty sound of an h-pipe through flowmasters. It's more of a growl. That's
the only word I can think of to describe the difference. It definitely still
sounds like a V-8 though, not a 4-banger with a turbo and the popoff valve
set too high. reen neen neen neen neen Whistle!!!!!
