Default Crossover pipe?

Thanks for the feed back on exhaust mods. One of the responses suggested true duel exhaust with crossover pipe. Can someone please tell me the reason for crossover pipe on exhaust system? WHICH SYSTEM HAS THE MOST H.P.? System with or without crossover? Thanks

I had a cross-over tube welded to my stock rear y-pipe in an effort to reduce resonance. Did it work? :yesnod: I only get some resonance at 1700/1800 rpm's when I accelerate slowly. Some say it boost your torque a couple ft lbs's. I don't know about that one-it may

Here on the C4 mall you can pick up a y-pipe with a crossover tube for I think $89,

Anybody done this one on an LT1 car? I have Flowmasters, and they are sweet in all but 6th gear at 70 to 80 mph (1700-1900 RPM). Man, feels like your bowels are vibrating.
