Default s-pipe question

So i was talking with this guy i know that has a mustang and his exhaust sounds sick so i asked him what he has. He just said x-pipe and that was it.
NOW i knoowww these are two totally different motors and everything but if i put an s-pipe on will it sound okay or is it not worth it. Any rasp or is it just a little bit louder?

And also if i don't go with an x-pipe i was thinking about either greddy tic exhaust or skunk 2. Anyone have any opinions on which one sounds better?

that's probably going to be about the best your going to get..most people are going to be biased about which exhaust they like better

And you don't really have to worry about rasp until you starting removing the cats..a header and/or a midpipe = rasp

Yeah thats what i thought so it will just basically be louder and sound the same. Plus less restrictive and etc.

It just has less bends and is straighter than the stock pipe...the spipe doesn't really have anything in it thats going to muffle the sound..or remove anything that currently muffles the sound
