Depends. I've heard good things about both, but the resonated x with straight pipes has no drone supposedly and will arguably sound meaner.

Its also what I did, so I would say listen to some of the exhaust videos in the LLT tab so that you can figure it out! Lol

They sound mostly the same, you just need to be able to filter what you hear from the LLTs headers. The LFX will sound more refined and less metallic.

Resonated x-pipe WITH the MRT v2 is the most common combination but the resonated x-pipe with muffler delete would be interesting.
