I don't know which one it best, but when I was looking for an X-Pipe I decided against ones like the Corsa, pictured below.
I would choose one with more of a definate "X" like the Bassani, pictured below, or the MagnaFlow.
I was going to install the MagnaFlow untill I found out how it would affect my Corsa Indy's.

I thought the X pipe was supposed to balance out the flow and prevent the decel popping and gurgling sounds. I'm installing the Corsa Indy pipes on my '04 and was watching this thread for the same info. What kind of affects are you talking about?

I happen to like the popping and gurgling, and most importantly the loudness. It is a personal preference. A few minutes later I talked with the owner of the Vette with the X-Pipe and he said he had the Indys installed abd a few months later had the X-Pipe installed because he didn't like the popping and gurgling. He said he was real dissapointed at first because the X-Pipe really quieted down the exhaust, but he really liked it now. He said it gives the Indy's more of a European sound that is more refined.
Also the X-pipe will not totally eliminate the popping, but will significantly reduce it.
All I know is when I get out on the track and those Indys are screaming thats the best sound in the world.
