The only reason why I'm considering a 17930 instead of another set of 1792's is because of the length. The 1792's are much shorter and they'd have to use some piping to make the 1792's fit in back.

the majority i've seen in person, the x is about a foot back.
If that's the case, i would love to try one. Theoretically you want the X pipe as close to the headers as possible for the best scavenging effect.

But i'm a bit confused 'cause the picture of the Agency Power mid pipe in link of the original post doesn't show any "X" at all...

From everything I have read/heard, this setup with OEM mod would be extremely loud. Look up some info on OEM mod and test pipes/x pipe. That should get you close.

I am in the market for test-pipes/midpipes and stumbled accross this thread and the agency pipes that are currently running for $782...

https://thmotorsports.com/440003-age...pipecat-delete

Couple of questions for the community;
1) Has anyone tried this setup with the oem mufflers/rear end? Any drone experienced?
2) Regarding the scavenging effect, and the "X" pipe, from the pictures the "X" pipe doesn't seem to merge both pipes, so what scavenging effect is everyone speaking off? Shouldn't there be a merge in the volume to create a delta in pressure and assist in scavenging or am I mistaken?

Thanks for the feedback!
