997.2 cross over pipes

Has anybody got the Billy Boat crossover pipes on a 997.2? Delete the primary muffler with straight pipes.
Any other crossover pipes feedback??

Consider AWE as well. I've installed a set of their crossover pipes and the fit and finish are first-rate.

I have the Fabspeed X-Pipe set-up, installed as part of a comprehensive Stage 1 upgrade

Some might not remember, but we had a discussion about this in some past threads. From our extensive before and after dyno testing, we found that that while the X-pipe designs might sound cleaner they do lost power and torque.

Our crossover pipes don't have the same sound as an X-pipe, but do yield a gain of power and torque.

We were at one point selling both, but making it clear on our website that one is for sound and the other was for power. Since nobody seem to want to lose power, the crossovers became the hot seller. We have since pulled the X-pipes from our site and only sell crossovers.

If anyone needs more info, please contact me via email. I promise a fast response.
