Default Anyone try the Bassani catback yet?

I’m pretty happy with my current exhaust setup, but I’m always willing to potentially try something new <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Still searching for the “perfect” setup. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

So anyone try it yet? Gains? Track or dyno? How’s it sound with an ORY? And with cats?

Ryan...Your worse than me! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> Just keep the 2OTL set-up and SAVE your money. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Anyway, here's a TTT for you.

I heard it on a guy's SS who had a cam, and Mac's with ORY. And it was very quiet for me. It does sound very smooth and mellow, but to $$$ for me!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Anyone else hear it/have it? Any reported gains?

Mike...somebody has to keep the LS1 catback industry going, might as well be me! <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" /> Yeah, I like what I have but I always have a buyer for most of my stuff so any time I feel like changing I only take a small hit in price.

Ok, I e-mailed Angie at Thunder about this catback. Here is the info I got:

Ryan, I have not been able to hear one of these systems on a car yet, so I
can't tell you any definite info. I know that the Bassani systems we have
sold in the past have been very good sounding systems, but this is a new
muffler design that they are using. We have sold a few of them with good
feedback, but not to any of our local customers. You are welcome to check
back with me a later date and I can let you know if I get any more info for
you. Let me know if you have any more questions--
Thanks!

Angie

So it looks like the few owners out there are happy with them, but Thunder has not heard one yet.
