Just a quick update after living with the X-pipe for a while for what its worth. Fuel economy has gone down from about 13.5 to 12.4 (I almost never get out on the freeway). The resonance is exclusively between 1500 and 2000rpm (right where I usually cruise, but I can live with it just fine). Not too bad considering the seat of the pants power increase, but you do get used to it quick (and at $4.70 per gallon for super...) Sadly, it is the more fuel efficient of my 2 cars, both of which require super unleaded... I'd rather kill myself than buy a Prius though. Love hurts.
