post a link to the kit so we can see what it comes with.. you wil need to cut and fab a few parts if you are tying it into your existing CME

Bassani's web site sucks. At least they could have pics of what it is you are buying.
You are definnitly going to need 2-90degree bends to mount to the CME, + 4 clamps if your not going to weld it. Do you have long tubes or stock manifolds?

im going to keep my stock manifolds for now. I already have the CME on my car now but i would still need the 2 90* to make it work? Let me find the link to it and ill post it up in a few.

I have both video clips of my exhaust... the first one is just bassani exhaust, it has noticeable exhaust note, not loud and then I have one on exhaust sticky not the true dual sticky. That one has w/ my Stainless works longtube headers w/ bassani true duals. It's definitely LOUDER. As far as CME set up w/ bassani, you just need the mandrel bent 90* for both side, cut or extend pipes for adjustments and the dual centered tips. Bassani set up includes all the hardware like clamps, torque stop, welded hangers, spacers for the under body brace and 3.5" bassani chrome tips (which I threw away, looked like a pair of fart cans tips IMO)

1 is easy and 10 is difficult? I'd say 2 or 3.

Here's what's included:



Basically it comes with all the hardware required to hook up to factory manifolds. It's a great system, sound and performance were awesome. On a dyno I picked up 20 lb/ft of tq over my stock ypipe configuration.

Aluminized steel should last no less than 7 years.

I have Bassani competition cat-back on my LS1. I am doing Pacesetters and tsp ORY this spring when I get it out of storage. www.fquick.com/foxrus14 check my exhaust clips on fquick.com if there is something else you want to see let me know. i also have some pics of my Bassani right out of the box. great quality and have not heard a deeper throaty exhaust out there.

Me too we can compare notes....

I just nee to know if its going to give me problems..Im lowered ~2" Im hoping that the Bassani being a 2.5 system will be forgiving

Other wise Im going ito get exotic like 3" pipe flattened or somthing
