H pipe?

Has anyone ever heard of an H pipe?
Someone told me that H pipes are better than Y pipes.
Is there such a thing and is this true?
Opinions and info are welcome.

Thanks,

Kev

an H pipe is traditionally found on V8's such as the mustang and camaro. it is for cars with true dual exhaust which ours do not have. i think even the new altima uses a y pipe pipe then just spilts the exhaust into both sides. as far as it being better, i guess if you have the right amount of volume of air to push through then it would be better but without forced induction, i cant see how or why it would benefit a maxima.

Speaking of pipes, how's your WSP y-pipe? Would you recommend it?

Love it, but seems as though many are having communications issue with WSP....
