Quick question...and maybe I'm over thinking this...
One of, if not the reason to incorporate an x-pipe into an exhaust system is to balance out exhaust flow, evening out gases as they exit from their respective banks. It's usually suggested to put the x-pipe right after the headers (collectors), and before the muffler(s). For us it is usually the general region of where the passenger cat and spaghetti pipe is just before the muffler.
With out exhaust running down the passenger side of the vehicle, hence having the driver side's pipe being an additional ~3' longer, does an x-pipe really balance things out since thing are even further unbalanced due to the differing lengths of pipe? :read: :shrug03:
