Good Luck on the install. Mine took a long time but that was due to the stock one not wanting to come off until I cut that bitch with a jig saw. HAHA. Your install should be easy since your stock one is already off. Try to get a friend to help you because it's hard to get it into place by yourself with another part falling off. However, it was probably my favorite mod so far until the Intake goes in and the gears. Good Luck!

I feel your pain about the BBK....mine only fits after I did some cutting and welding on it to fix the fit. I am also plannin on another mid pipe soon (maybe a prochamber or a Dr. Gas X).

Also, did you get the stainless or the Bx series?

I've been looking into an xpipe for awhile now. Could you let us know how it fit and whether you still have the exhaust hitting the frame. I pretty much decided on bassani so I hope yu say it was all good. i haven'tordered yet though.

Did you get the Stainless one?

I tried a couple of BBK mid pipes. The first one was a catted H. I couldn't get that thing to line up right to save my life. So I sent it back and got an off road H. It was a little better, but it still would not line up right. So I sent that one back and spent more than I wanted to on the bassani off road X. Fit like a glove.

ok the bassani is on...I fits great no scraping the ground no smacking the frame and it sounds excellent!!! I highly reccomend this pipe...install wasn't too bad a little more difficult than the h pipe was seeing as how it comes in more pieces..as a matter of fact I did it by myself and didn't quite get it right and it popped off (disconnected but still hanging in place...damn the open header exhaust was LOUD!!) but I got a friend to help and now it is on all good
