Exhaust research - FYI

[hybrid]

X/H balances the cylinder banks on each side producing more power and nicer sound.

Adding a balance pipe is like downloading Google Maps for your exhaust. As combustion gases travel out of the header collector and into the intermediate pipe, if their progress slows down due to backpressure, a balance pipe redirects them to a less congested flow path. “The name ‘balance pipe’ should be a clue as to why X- and H-pipes work so well,” Don Lindfors, Director of Exhaust R&D at PerTronix Performance Products explains. “Just like the name suggests, they help to balance the flow between all the cylinders. Beyond that, they can even help with scavenging by having cylinders from the opposite bank of the engine create a negative wave to increase the overall flow of the exhaust.”

Installing a cross over bought the db level of my car just low enough to pass rego.
