I understand his position and respect it, but I don't know if a Vette beating a Cobra should be suspect, now if tis the way it happened he can be suspect, but I've always had a thing in saying that if I wasn't there I can't say it didn't happen, but that is just me, I understand, but lets all put this behind us!

A Y pipe is a pipe that connects the left and right header downpipes together and routes them to a single exhaust pipe - LS engines in Camaros and some GM SUVs and trucks have these, even if later on the exhaust splits and exits the rear as two tailpipes.
An H or an X pipe is a set of pipes that connect the two header downpipes for the V8 to a dual exhaust: the H pipe is basically two pipes, one for each side of the exhaust, connected by a crosspipe. The X is the same thing except the two sides bend and meet. (Go to websites like Corsa or Borla and look at the pictures and you'll see. H and X pipes provide more power than just a straight dual pipes (one on each side) exhaust - sharing a bit of pressure side to side, but well donwstream of the engine, leads to a bit more mid range torque.
'vettes come standard with a type of H pipe exhaust so when someone says they have a X or Y pipe exhaust, they generally mean they upgraded to bigger pie daimters, etc.
