I'm about to buy a X-Pipe and stumbled across this website.

Any ideas? Comments?

Supposedly, "Converts excess sound pressure (noise) into increased cylinder pressure (adding 18+ RWBHP)
__Generates 3 power peaks; at 2,000, 4,000, & 6,000 rpm!"

Think it's legit?

Sounds like B.S. to me. There were not any pics of the overall system, but it looks like it is a muffler only. His reasoning behind his "system" is very sketchy.

I can only tell ya that after installing a Magnaflow X pipe (the pipe section that comes with the cat back system - I bought it used for $250) my 1/4 mile time went from 13.3 @ 107 to 13.1 @ 108.5 mph. The DA on the 13.3 time was 25 ft and on the 13.1 it was 325 ft. Hope this helps.

And by the way, I could really tell the difference, much more mid range and some top end.
