Message	"The best alternative here would probably be to just run open exhaust!" Great idea, morons - let's cancel out the exhaust scavenging effect of an X pipe, and decrease performance while making our cars sound like pure ass. I've read more than one test where the final HP output was greater with a well configured exhaust than with open headers. Those clowns are clueless. Recursively Yours, Kenny...
