Just had the SM H-pipe fitted to my Autoshield/Marios straight through back boxes. I know its not Larini, but wow what a difference. It's like I have a whole Orchestra strapped underneath.
Lovely twin harmonics at low revs around town, you can hear the V8 almost singing, instead of having cotton wool stuffed up the pipe. give it a bit of welly and all the sections join in with fantastic percussion .....just like the 1812 when you change down at the lights........bang bang!

So glad you like your new sound, I knew you would! Spread the word, the dark side is becoming the enlightened side!

Sounds great and sounds familiar....

Everyone really is going to recognise you at your work car park now! No sneaking off early.

I am still thinking about swapping my standard back boxes for some valved ones to attach to my H pipe. I need the car to be pretty standard sounding in my street and maybe on the motorway with the family, but a decent roar the rest of the time.

I think given I don't have valved back boxes and am already happy with the raspiness of the exhaust as well as associated pops and bangs, the H pipe may suit me better than the X pipe. Something for the summer perhaps. How much they going for? Would love to hear some sound clips of H pipe with straight through back boxes
