Bassani cat back exhaust
Bassani cat back exhaust I am going to be getting a catback exhaust soon, and i've been doing a lot of research and all to figure out the best system for my needs. I don't want something as loud as loudmouth, and not as raspy as borla, so I was considering bassani. They seem to do well on mustangs, but my problem is I can not find any info on them! I don't see anyone who carries their catback systems or has any prices etc on them. Does anyone know where I can find this info at and maybe a sound clip? I did a search and didn't come up with any websites on where to find info/pics/prices/sound clips at. Only thing I found is that it seems to fit good and be a nice system. Thanks.

I have a full bassani system. Got it all from thunder racing, I beleive they are the only sponser that sells it. It's realitively new on the market still compared to other catbacks. It sounds great, I have no real rasp to speak of with an ORY, and it's noticeablly loud without being too loud. It really doesn't sound like Borla at all to me; borla tends to rasp quite a bit with an OYR, but this bassani system is basically rasp free when used with their headers/ORY.
I like the ball flange ends. Makes adjustments real easy while installing. I also like the ball flange headers, they don't leak and are easy to disconnect when needed.
I've had 7 different catbacks alone, and this one is by far my favorite. I also love their headers and Y-pipe.
For further review, read my reply to the "exhaust review" thread in this forum started by jrp. I gave it my full review there. The system is top notch and fits perfect.

Thanks for the links and info, I saw your review on it, that is what made me get more info on it. My only problem is, I don't plan on using there headers, I am going to get a turbo kit eventually so all I am going to run is their catback and Y pipe. Will their Y pipe bolt up to fact exhaust manifolds? I'm having a doubt that it won't, I just can't see spending the money on the headers if I will only get a few years out of them, if that.

Well I just planned on getting their cat back for now, I am not sure about the Ypipe because that will end up getting replaced with the turbo kit as well I think. It will be a single turbo kit, either QMP, Redline motorsports, or a combo of one and part custom. I will have to look into GMMG, I didn't think Bassani was that expensive, 650$! I am trying to stay under 500$, I want flow like a loudmouth, just not as loud. I guess having the cat back and stock everything else, then when I get the turbo, it will still be somewhat quiet, but flow enough for the turbo? hmm tough decisions....
