The Xpipe isn't creating any sound of its own so it must be the unmasking of existing bad sound that you are hearing.
It was a relatively cheap mod so if you have to put it back it won't be too expensive. You can sell the Xpipe in the For Sale forum. Bet it would sound righteous with a good set of mufflers on it though.
Good luck and let us know what you end up doing.

You're right there. Good thing I drove back to the shop to get the factory resonator after my first experience taking the onramp with my window open. It was disheartening to discover I had marbles banging around in my SS pipes.
Total cost was about $160 plus another $80 to go back to the stock setup.
