Hello,
I have a mina gallery exhaust on my xkr & I plan on installing an X-pipe on it.
Their are a few X-pipes but I need help on choosing one.
1. Magnaflow

2. Summit

3. Crossover

4. Flow sound

They are 2.25"
Which one should i get?
Thank you, Alex

 

We had good results with the Magnaflow example at the top on our XKR. Have you found the Mina exhaust to be a bit too raspy without the X? Just curious what your reasoning for going this route was.

Jason, I believe the Mina system leaves the front dual in-dual out muffler in place. This would replace that front muffler.

Alex, Magnaflow does make good stuff, but any of them should work just fine. I would guess the Magnaflow would cost the most and Summit the least, so I would probably just go with the Summit.

 

I have straight pipes on it right now and it is too raspy yes.

 

Just got mine done today. Shop made the X pipe.. total was Under $40!

Pics to come later!

No change on idle running....but when you get on it.. they come alive! Perfect!!

 

Forgot last pic!!!

 

that's a good price, now we need to hear it turbo video/sound clip please

 

That's a screamin' deal for the work you had done. One of the things I really miss about living in the midwest. When I left Carbondale in '97, I saw gas for sale at $0.87/gallon somewhere in SW Missouri.

I will add video as soon as my new TIPS get installed. I had to order them. I cant remember who added them to their XK8 but it looks a ton better filling up the gaps around the small tips that are stock.

 

Carbondale, IL?

 

Yup. Go Salukis!

My XKR is without the two rear mufflers (I have these http://www.adamesh.co.uk/jaguar-xk8-...stem-880-p.asp that are bigger and louder than original ones) and now I'm considering if to mount the central X-pipe or not. What do You think about it? May I have any detonation problem or flames out?

 

You shouldn't have any problems, it will just be even louder. Do you have the two intermediate mufflers?

 

I believe that on stock XK8/R we have one front central silencer and two rear muffler (one right and one left); now I have no more the two rear muffler and I'm thinking to mount a X-pipe instead of the central silencer; in this case I'll have no more silencers/mufflers but just "a pipe".

 

You may have seen the pix I posted. Really makes a difference!

 

don't forget my tips proud of 'em

 

Hey, that's what I tell my wife. If she has them, she should flaunt them.








Oh... you said TIPS! Never mind.

 

Nice tips there h20boy! But, mine is bigger than yours!!

 

I concede, they truly are. You win!
