Getting a H-pipe, since the price range can be from $130 up to $275, does brand make any difference on sound/performance? From pypes to Roush?

I went with the Steeda H and welded the rear on. Sounds great.

i went a different direction: a Mishimoto H pipe. They are very well made w/bracing. The clamps worked first time out and never needed adjustment. Sound is nice. Mishimoto, like Steeda, make high quality products that last.

Just wondering, do you have inspetions, that test that? Or it's on the road side and a local cop making the call ?
It's always a local cop making the call, it just depends on how loud you're being and how miserable the cop is that day

The answer to the question, cause used this before.

Hey officer this is the way I bought the car. Ford would not sell me a car with illegal equipment ?

But if the car has wheelie bars, blower popping out of the hood ...... that one just might not work real well..

When I was the 🚔, my goal was to give a warning for almost everything if possible. Usually people would talk themselves into a ticket by being stupid and running their mouth. I would be as cool as they’d let me be. Get an attitude and it’s going downhill fast.

I did the exact same thing; welded on the Steeda axle-backs.
Is there a difference between me getting a combination of a H- pipe with axle backs vs. just getting a full out cat back system?

I think it is the piping from the cats to the H/X pipe. I notice the full cat back systems cost more when compared to the same manufactors H/X pipe plus axle-back.

I'm considering the Steeda H pipe with my stock mufflers. Just curious, how does it sound on the highway at regular cruising speeds? Is it subdued in the car when not on the throttle, or would it be annoying on a longer highway trip?

It is subdued when cruising. I don't find it too loud inside when on the highway.

I can have my radio volume on 3 or 4 and hear it fine. It’s not loud at all while cruising.

Yes price makes a difference, more about what you do not see.

I put the Steeda H-Pipe on my 2019 car and it sounded more raspy than the stock resonator and on deceleration with "Rev Matching ON" my car sounded like a 4 cylinder tractor so I removed it the same day and sold it.........BEAUTIFUL piece but not to my liking!! 🤔

I found the stock mufflers to sound too tinny and shallow with the resonator gone. Only lasted about a month before going full after market exhaust. Current setup is my favorite so far on this car
