X-Pipe or H-Pipe?
As performance enthusiasts, we
desire the greatest performance from our vehicles. When it comes to a mid-pipe
upgrade to enhance performance, we’re faced with an important question: X-Pipe
or H-Pipe? Making this decision seems extremely difficult but take it from the after-market
exhaust specialists: this question has a no-brainer answer. The H-Pipe exhaust system beats the X-Pipe in
regards to gas-flow, efficiency, muscle car sound and overall raw American performance…
hands down.
Why? The unique design of the
H-Pipe creates a greater surface area for the exhaust gases, meaning better
efficiency. The tubes of the X-Pipe cross at the middle of the system, compressing
more gas volume into a smaller space and decreasing the air flow, and
therefore, creating an additional back-up of exhaust gases. The H-Pipe avoids
this back pressure by directing the exhaust gases along separate air ways connecting
them by a short cross-tube. Using an
H-Pipe exhaust design to increase gas displacement in your engine and maximize
your engine’s efficiency is a given.
Wait – There’s more! MRT has
designed a superior MaxFlow H-Pipe that beats all others on the market, H-Pipes
and X-Pipes alike. MRT achieves the
highest engine efficiency with three key elements: 1) a greater tube diameter,
2) a smoother exhaust path, and 3) minimum catalyst backpressure.
The MRT MaxFlow H-Pipe widens the
mid-pipe to 2.5 or 3 inches in diameter for maximum air-flow. What’s more, MRT's
CNC mandrel bending technology ensures that our MaxFlow H-Pipe features smooth
bends and precise fit. Now that’s a perfect fit!
Most MRT MaxFlow H-Pipe products
offer additional gains by reducing restrictions caused by the catalytic
converters ("cats") in two distinct catted versions: HiFlow and RaceCats. The HiFlow version
of the MRT MaxFlow H-Pipe is equipped with high-performance ceramic catalysts
that improve exhaust flow over the factory equipment. The HiFlow option is ideal for the street performance driver, as it
offers a reasonable compromise between performance output and emissions. The RaceCat
version of the MRT MaxFlow H-Pipe is a perfect fit for the extreme
performance driver. The RaceCat H-Pipe
features a premium metallic catalyst for a greater reduction in back-pressure,
best saved for the track. Choose the best fit for driving needs, in order to
receive the performance gains that fit you!
What do a greater tube diameter, a
smoother exhaust path, and minimum catalyst backpressure add up to? MAXIMUM
performance for your vehicle! But that’s not all: with great design you need
great material; that’s why MRT handcrafts their MaxFlow H-Pipes out of T304
Stainless Steel that is CNC mandrel bent at MRT Headquarters in Plymouth,
Michigan. That’s right, all MRT exhaust systems are made in the USA! T304
stainless steel has a high resistance to corrosion, offering the MRT MaxFlow H-Pipe
long-lasting premium performance: the performance enthusiast’s dream. Go with
the H-Pipe, and take it from us, you WON’T be disappointed!
