Default ARH connecting to Bassani duals question

I have some ARH long tubes and the bassani duals system ready to install. I was just wondering about how much pipe I'll need to connect between the exhaust and the long tubes. I'm fairly certain since the bassani system is designed to connect to stock manifolds, it'll come up a bit short. Do you think a 3in to 2.5in reducer (since I have to have this anyway) would be long enough or will i need more pipe beyond that. I know its a fairly specific question you could only know if you have this exact setup but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

Actually, the Bassani duals are going to be way too long, not too short. You'll have to cut them.

Awesome. Thats good to hear. I don't know why I thought they'd come up short. All I need are some 3in to 2.5in reducers then. Thanks alot!

Hopefully everything lines up for you. I guess you are not going to install cats?

i think bassani sells a few different setups. i believe one setup bolts up to the stock manifolds and the other bolts up to pacesetter headers. i wish they fit ARH headers because that is the setup that i would be running. however, i have been told it doesn't fit. well, i guess with modifications anything could fit.

On a side note. I've never heard of any Bassani TD setup for headers, just manifolds. Are you sure about that?

Yeah no cats going on right now. Maybe later if I ever move out of the middle of nowhere. Hopefully they do line up decently but I guess if not I'll have to take it to a shop and have them fill in the gaps after I get the bulk of the work done.
