Red face Off Road X Pipe Question?

A couple of questions about an X pipe. This will be going on my 2010 Mustang GT, stock, with a MAC axle back exhaust.

1. Is this the best X pipe for my car : http://www.americanmuscle.com/pypes-...-or-xpipe.html , or would you guys recommend a better set?

The price seems pretty reasonable! And I am very close to purchasing these.

2. Will this cause a check engine light to come up?

3. How much is the average Horsepower increase if these are installed on stock headers?


I appreciate any answers!

1. I think an X-pipe gives it a raspy sound, especially off-road one...but a off-road H-pipe will probably give it a nice deep growl....depends on what you want. For the H-pipe, you can get one off a forum for alot less or from a member on here...I bet there are several around here.

2. It will make the light come on because it won't read the sensors.

3. Xpipe does have more gains than an Hpipe, not sure how much though.

Aww man, I guess I'll pass on this until my warranty is up in 7 years or 70K miles.....
