Default Please help me decide!

Alright guys i had put money away to buy TSP True Duals and a 10000K HID Kit, but i had took a look at Vinci Performance web site and they are now selling the Bassani X true dual system that goes all the way back for $800, now im leaning towards this system but i want my HID's. Question is should i get the TD's and HID kit or the Bassani System? Yall are all pros at these kind of questions, help me out.

All depends... TSP vs Bassani? Dumped vs out the back? Louder in car vs not as loud in car? If I were you I'd go with the TSP system. Still get your exhaust setup plus your HIDs that you wanted. Does the bassani system work with LTs? I was under the impression it was for stock manifolds... not to say it can't be adapted to LTs, as anything is possible with $$. Sadly I've only had experience with the TSP so my opinion might be skewed

it's a personal choice. if you don't mind interior noise from the exhaust dumping before the axle, then TSP. also, check with your local laws concerning where the exhaust has to exit. some states require it exit past the passenger compartment. this will rule out the TSP.

as far as the bassani and headers go, you would need to adapt to fit the headers as the bassani is made to hook to factory manifolds and cats. i made the necessary changes to fit it on the wife's car that has headers.
