X Connector Pipe (for dual exhaust systems) |
The exhaust configuration for the stock Camaro and for most aftermarket performance systems use a single large exhaust pipe running from the engine to the rear
along the transmission hump to a muffler.
If installing a dual exhaust system, you will see a performance gain if you employ an X-pipe connector near the engine headers.
The X-pipe balances the high pressure pulses coming from the engine resulting in lower back pressure and thus a more free flowing exhaust.

Installation note: When using headers, they generate more heat and bring the heat closer to the speedometer cable than in a stock system.
Thus it is required that a speedometer cable be used which does NOT use a
plastic liner. The stock unit with a plastic liner will melt and lock up the inner cable. This in turn locks the driven plastic speedo gear in the transmission.
This then strips both of the plastic speedo gears in the transmission.
The transmission then must be broken open to repair the damage.
