Buy the cat back and x-pipe and install it yourself. You will save some money that you could use for some other mods. I am putting my Bassani x-pipe on tomorrow. I can't wait. I didn't want to pay someone else money to do something that is really not that hard to do. Just do it. You will love the Bassani sound. I do!

Haven't heard the Bassani, but I sure do like my Magnaflow catted X-pipe and Borla Stinger cat back system. Installed it myself...and I'm thinking that I paid less than 1Grand for both (with shipping). I would think that the performance would be similar...and I can tell you that the Borla Stinger is *probably* considered to be one of the louder cat back systems.

well i think installation is only $125, and i dont know what all i could do w/ that amazing amount of money! well anyway, could i install it myself if i dont have anything to raise my car up, and how long of a job does it take to do x-pipe & cat back? and im taking it is all bolt on b/c i did have doubts on if i did try and do it that i might not properly seal everything right...
