X-Pipe vs. H-Pipe

I plan on going with duals for my v6 this summer and was wondering what would give me better sound and/or performance, the h pipe or the x pipe. I plan to use the Borla Stingers for my mufflers, but am also looking for opinions on which mufflers would sound the best? Thanks!

H-pipe tends to give in a deep nice rumble, x-pipe a little more smooth as I have always heard, x-pipe sounds like nascar.

My x is plenty loud with the headers and stingers on my GT, you might want to try the h on your v6 to get it a little louder to sound a little more like an 8

I'm actually considering going swapping a "X" under mine. Summit has the FR X-pipe w/ clamps for under $150. Should go well w/ my flows...

Thanks for the input guys! I think this is the setup im going to go with...
JBA Stainless Steel H Pipe and Midpipes - 05 + V6 seen here http://www.v6mustangstuff.com/05V6Exhaust.htm with a set of Borla/FRPP Stingers. Hopefully it will sound good! Anyone selling or know anyone who wants to sell a set of stingers?

actually my BBK X pipe /hi flo cats with the Saleen 475 HP and Pypes sounds more like a V10 or a diesel under a lot of boost(at least from the drivers seat)
