That is the high flow cat H pipe I'm looking at. I also have the the Flow A/t's no idea how it sounds but thought maybe this would help you out some.
Don't waste your money on a High flow cat H pipe. The stock flows extremely well, and I don't think that you will really pick up any sound difference either.

Before you say it, I know that I have the the high flow X but I did it for sound purpose's not power.

want to make about 400hp with a intake,tuner,pullies,coil on plugs,throttle body,mid-pipe,headers,and cams
I hope that your are talking at the crank, but even that would be very difficult.

I guess a mid-pipe will not be neccesary to make 400hp at the crank. Here is my in detail mod list: C&L Racer Intake,Granatelli Coil on Plugs,Hooker SuperComp headers,Xcalibrator 2 with Brenspeed Tune,BBK Throttle Body,Motoblue Underdrive Pulleys,Stage 3 Comp Cams,4:10 gears. If that does not work,add delete plates to make the rest of the 400hp at the crank that I want if the mods above don't.

I'snt the actual part of the crossover pipe bigger then the stock one? I'd think there would be a sound differnce at the least. Anyway I'd like to hear it and see some dyno numbers, dont think I could get away without cats in my area.

Leo, Your car sounds awesome. I though about going with an O/R set-up, but we have emissons once a year in Pittsburgh. I'm not swapping it out every year...

Thanks. I just switched out my H-pipe today so I could register my car in Cali and It was only my second time doing it and It took me about two hours, one hour per switch since right after the smog check I threw the O/R H back on. It's really simple and worth the fun. Here in Cali we have to do it every other year. My point is don't let having to switch it out stop you.

In California, I heard that the newer cars are not even being run on the emissions dyno, that they just plug into the computer and take a history- is that correct? I used to live there and Texas seems to be following right behind them.

That's incorrect. I just had my car smogged a week ago and you still have to go on the dyno.
