    i have done some custom 3 3 1/2 4 inchs ex with the X cross. i think if you have room i would put one in. gives the car a sound that is very unique and they say you can pickup some torque

    The consensus is that they add to low end torque and reduce restriction. They also do add that rather nice sound. If you have room, do it.

    My coupe's channelled, so I had to run a crossover under the driveshaft. The pipe is still above the transmission pan.

    I see you put flanges so you could drop one side without the other. You saved me some thinking there and probably some cussing later
    Thanks

    Yep, and I have a computer program that shows you how to cut the fishmouths to mate the pipes together. I can send it to you if you want.
