Other way around
Oh. Well every real world example I have ever found plus the video that Qdub posted and KwikCutty's example shows the X pipe creating a more mellow, deeper tone than straight pipes or H pipes.I got it right,
X vs. H
Although X- and H-pipes perform extremely well for a minimal investment in time and money, both offer unique properties that make one more suitable than the other depending on the application. “The two biggest differences between an X- and an H-pipe are sound and power. Generally, the X-pipe will deliver a more high-pitched exhaust note, making a car sound more exotic, whereas an H-pipe gives a deeper tone with more of a traditional hot rod sound,” says George Rumore of Stainless Works.

Now you're the only one who seemed to go in the opposite direction by going X to straight. Was it an issue of just kipping it simple?My 83 with a 400 in it had an X pipe before I straight piped it. The X pipe calmed the idle down quite a bit and made the exhaust sound deeper.
I think that would make the few function brain cells riot.Wanna get silly? Let's make some 180* headers...😎
