Thanks for all you guys opinions. All of you bring up some great points and to tell you the truth i'm kinda still torn between the two but, i'll probably go with bassani for the price.

srt, you have the first x pipe that i actually think sounds good...no raspyness to it.. damn that car sounds good

I was gonna say go with borla cause i had them on my last mustang... they were quiet but noticeable at idle, nice and bassy at normal driving, and at wot they were throaty and bassy... i'll be swithing back to borla soon...... but if you car is ganna sound anything like srt's, buy bassani NOW!

Bassani for $100 off craigslist FTMFW. I then took my flowmaster catback and sold it for $200. I got paid $100 to get a bassani exhaust.

Tips looks sexy Too!!!

I love my borlas...that being said, i would try some bassanis just for a change, those were the two i was stuck between as well...glad i went with the borlas though, combined with my o/r prochamber i have never heard a sound like it. I get people telling me that they heard my car somewhere sometime from some parking garage, haha all i say is yea, you probably did.

Ok bassani it is but I have to do some other things also. My cel keeps coming on and it's a cylinder 1 misfire. Really got me frustrated so gotta tend to that first. I'd like to thank everyone for their great input.

Bad COP, very common problem. Good excuse for an MSD upgrade Or I hear the Screamin Deamon did a 12 rwhp gain in Muscle Mustangs or 5.0 mag. I forget which one. But all they did was swap out the stock coils on an 03 GT and it picked up 12 rwhp and they kept saying how they have only ever pulled out 2 or 3 hp on a performance ignition. I kinda want to try them myself If I ever loose a coil then thats the route I will prolly go

I have Bassani and love it but however I heard Borla stingers on an 03 cobra with longtubes and that setup pwns all! Like previously posted

Stingers>Bassani>Regular Borla

IMO regular borla is too quiet but Bassani owns on 4v's

i have a bassani o/r x and stingers. to me it sounds alright but i've gotten a bunch of compliments from strangers in the last 3 months that i've had them so they must sound good to everyone else. i'm thinking about cutting off the mufflers and welding in single chamber flows or somethin?

and here's a sound clip if it helps any: YouTube - borla stingers o/r x & o/r h comparison
