Honestly I was trying to figure out what a "midi pie" was?
Now that I know, I have 1-7/8" long tubes with a high flow catted X-pipe and NPP exhaust.

Yeah sorry about the typo, obviously I meant "mid pipe", and thanks for the replies.

From what I have read I think the H-pipe will cause more burbling and popping because it tends to "trap" the exhaust air flow compared to the X-pipe.

H pipe was the evolution before the X pipe

I had a '64 vette with under-the-car off-road exhaust and it was loud. I put in an H pipe to "equalize the pressure" and it took some of the rappy noise out of it. I'm not sure an H pipe is what you want.

In C5's everyone was replacing the H pipe with a X pipe to reduce popping and motorboat sound.
