Being mid-lengths gains should be roughly comparable to Mac's.

They've kinda dropped off the face of the earth, haven't they? When the Bassanis first came out I remember seeing two different dyno runs on them. One person gained about 15rwhp and the other gained very little - like 4rwhp. Don't know anything more specific than that (like what sort of tuning was done, mods, etc.). I also remember seeing pics and being disappointed with their small collectors, but that's subjective. As mentioned before, I would expect them to perform like Macs, but with higher quality.

i ran those headers for a couple months before i did a h/c install and switched to LT's. they are for sale if anyone is interested in a used set. they are chrome finish but they do need to be cleaned up alittle. i ran them on an otherwise stock motor. i never did learn how much of a difference they made. if i was supposed to feel a sotp difference, i did not. i have a '01 SS M6.
if anyone is interested, $265 shipped.

Here's a dyno with Bassani's and other mods:

Initially, I was unhappy with the Bassani's, but it turned out that the cats (Catco) sucked.

Bassani took back the Y-Pipe with cats and I got a ORY and had Random Techs welded in.

Do these headers have 1 3/4" primaries like Macs and longtubes or 1 5/8" like shorties? I have heard both...
