There are a few folks running them. I can't remember the screen name, but the sig says "the bitches toy". When you find him, search for his post.

You mean, mrr23. I think he's the first one with bassani TDs. He referred me to Vinci Performance to buy my bassani TDs.

When I searched, I found that 9 members claimed they had this system. Only one had complaints, excluding price. I am seriously considering it. Still doing research though.

I wonder if this system will work with an aftermarket rear such as a 12 bolt

I'm sure that won't be a problem.. I thik the piping looks awfully small though, looks like 2 1/4 or 2.5 inch.. too small for my application.

2.5". That would be more than enough for me.

Mrr23 ran his formy w/ TDs, bolt ons/ nitrous. I'm sure it can handle more than bolt-ons/cam/heads.

Yes it is. I took a picture of the bottles so people like you will know what they look like. I got mine FINALLY from Autozone. After I bought 6 bottles of GC, I asked the manager politely to resupply their store with the GC so I can buy it from them anytime.

the system is a dual 2.5" system made to hook to factory 00-02 cats and manifolds. times for both cars are in my sigs. to need something larger than a dual 2.5", you must be doing something pretty serious.

orangeapeel - i couldn't afford to work there. i would be so in debt. i'd have a sign on my toolbox saying will work for speed parts. but, i do independant testing for them, when they need it.

i had the second tru-duals when they came out. first was the one done at bassani. i did the dyno and track testing for bassani through vinci.
i have pics of the system on both cars. click the wonderful pink banner or the 00 formula to see them.

We will need more feedback about this system. I did the search but... please, tell us more about it, 780 is too much money, so I have to be very sure about this buy.

I just bought Hurst shifter, UMI LCAs, , HPTuners, LS7 Clutch, Lid, and will buy UMIs PHBs & SFC this week. So I went out of money. (have the car since two months ago)

So I am thinking on having 380 usd Coated LTs (like peceseter) and 250 usd custom True duals, or having just this Bassani and wait some more time to get the coated LTs.

Thanks and sorry for my english

I admire that you always go to bat for them. Very loyal Vinci person. I know the feeling of being broke from a performance shop job. Getting crap at cost is half the problem!
