I currently have the short tails, which are a wonderful set of pipes. I think my hearing has degraded recently, but it's a small price to pay for the raw VQ sound!

I'd gladly look for a system that essentially eliminates the factory Y pipe and midpipe for a more free flowing, straighter H pipe configuration. I will soon be installing an OBX Y pipe and some test pipes until this system is developed. Let me get one thing straight though, you are retaining the Y pipe and redesigning the midpipe? Or are you taking out the Y pipe and midpipe, then redesigning them as a single (or two piece) H pipe?

Maybe some 12-18 inch resonators on the midpipe (after the H joint, before the muffler) would eliminate most of the low-RPM drone. Or perhaps create a Helmholtz resonator.
The pipe that comes off of the cats, what I'm calling our H pipe (some call Y pipe, some call X pipe, depending on design) we already have this designed and produced for the 2.5" true dual

we now just need to make the midpipe section, connecting the rear section (whether it be short tails, or stock muffler) to the 2.5" H pipe. We would definitely have to throw some serious resonators on there especially for those running the short tails already considering they have no mufflers lol
