Is X-pipe worth cost?

Is an x-pipe worth the cost? I think I've found a way to mount one on my 150.

Is X-pipe worth cost?

But, is it worth the money? It's up to you. I know they are getting some really dollars out of some of these simple little devices.

I suggest finding a welder(or friend who welds) and making one. A couple elbows, a hack saw and Viola'...X-pipe. I'm sure the who you buy may look really special , but if you can cut straight, weld good, it will work just as good.

I don't know how much X-pipe's sell for already made, but I had one custom made on my Mustang for $80.

Thumbs up Is X-pipe worth cost?

yes its worth it. an x pipe balances out back pressure between each side of the block. which means more ponies. because the exaust flows easier.

Is X-pipe worth cost?

Will the Bassani X-Pipe for the lightning work for a 4.6L f150? I know that the Lightning has a 5.4L in it but I was just wondering if it was the same block used on both engines. I am specifically looking for a good highflow cat system.

It doesnt really matter what vehicle the x pipe was intended for as long as there is room for it and ifyou can weld your pipes to it. I just had and x pipe installed on a 95 3/4 ton 4x4 with 460 and love everything about it. It sounds really.....really......cool!
