the mustang i go tthe other day has a set of equal length bassani headers and x-pipe with cats. and i was wondering if this are good or on the lower end of the products. then it goes into flowmaster mufflers. looks like 2-1/2 inch exhaust pipes. sounds good to me even with the cats on it.

thanks for any info. sorry if any this question are noob stuff.

Bassani is among the best you can buy, especially if it's stainless steel.

Bassani equals and catted SS midpipe is a grand worth of stuff.
Usually only people that care about their cars buy bassani parts.

i did a little search like ya'll said and seen the entire exhaust would cost around 1400. thats with the cat back flowmasters. makes me feel alot better about this car. it also has a b and m shifht on it. but thats about it. im trying to fine the guy that had the car before the guy i got it from. the car feels strong for what it is. its got the stock 2.73 gears in it. and my pops thinks its got a small cam in it, but i don't. i believe its just the exhaust making it sound that way.

thanks everyone for the info.
