Default bassani true-dual

i have a 99 ss and i really want the bassani true-dual catback, right now the car has eibach sportline springs, and i know that they are not the best but they were free. my question is if i get the bassani catback will i have alot of scraping problems until i have a chance to upgrade to a better spring/shock combo. right now i really dont have no issues scraping eventhough its really low. any help will be apprecited.

My bassani true duals have the same clearance as the stock one. Their system tucks in really well.

PM mr223 or w/e his name, can't remember his exact u/n but he has the answer to your 1st question. I don't have the answer for your 2nd... Might want to ask UMI and Bassani or Vinci about using both products together.

I agree, I'd email Vinci for what works together. So far as what HP true duals supports, there are people running 550+HP systems with 2.5" true duals, no problems there.

i've been 481 in the wife's car with headers and 475 on my black car with stock manifolds. 550 won't be a problem. i'm about to put the system to the test, in about 3 months.
