XK Exhaust Mod Opinions

There are several threads regarding exhaust modifications with many happy owners. I removed the resonators and replaced them with an X-pipe which is essentially the same as the performance exhaust option from jaguar.
The results as I have posted with audio are amazing and well worth it. I have absolutely NO drone.
If I were you I would keep the X-pipe and put the stock muffler back on. You have already come this far...

As I said in my previous post, I replaced my center section with an X pipe and have no drone and noticed no performance drop.

Yes thats my new ride, although most of the forum members here hate it because of the body kit on it lol. It just has the resonator removed, thats it. I love the sound of it. Very quiet if im just cruising around but it sounds like a nasty, mean wild animal when I unleash it. I would love to do a milltek exhaust just for more performance but im not too keen on the 8,000$ price I got quoted for it. I think im just going to eliminate the cats and see how it sounds then, if its too loud I will put a quiclsilver cat back on after the test pipes.

Got the XK up to 70-80 in Sport mode. Didn't notice anything different over OEM (with x-pipe). Going back to OEM muffler has vastly improved low end torque and makes the car much snappier. Had trouble driving it in traffic actually. Had to lighten the foot on the throttle!
I'd say the x-pipe for a cheap mod may/may not be worth it, but you won't suffer ill consequences at least.
