    meh, mine was a true x pipe. Guess they changed the internal design later on???

    Not sure it is a con though.

    Seems the jury is still out. Some guy looked at his '07 (build date 10/07) and he had a true X pipe. Could be a factory or mfg screw up? Interesting.

    One thing that's funny is that the OP modified his exhaust and says he lost a bunch of power. While he was in there he found the "not X" pipe. Now everybody assumes he lost power because of that...

    i did not assume that dave....... i still do not think his "butt dyno" is calibrated correctly....hehehehehehe

    i have a VERY similar exhaust set up as he does, and mine definately DID NOT make the car lose power......
