Not to be an *** but all the info is out there. That is how I learned, hours of reading. I dont exactly remember why no xpipe. It has to do with turbos and the air in the pipe hitting each other and backing up. I know thats real professional and all but just do some reading. I gave you the quick answer and so did press.

I would choose no xpipe based on what I have read. You do what you want.

well I did read up on it (and always do, posting is my last resort) and never came upon any info regarding the x-pipe creating side affects with the turbos. All I know is many 2.7tees were running it with no complaints.

I'm glad you answered "not to install x-pipe" I just thought that explaining why, would have been an easy answer for someone who knew it.
