BORLA STINGER VS BASSANI, which has the better sound?

Hello, I would like to know from experience as buyers or from spectators, do you believe that the borla stinger catback or the bassani catback sounds better and/or looks better on our mustangs?

I'd love to hear your opinions, so please respond.

I'd go Borla. Bassani sounds like an old army jeep to me -

However Magnaflow sounds soooo nice ! See sig for video
Probably much cheaper too.

I love my Bassani! Most of the Borla's that I have heard have too much of a poppy sound. I don't really like that sound to much. But thats just my opinion. You will get tons of different answers. Borla and Bassani are two of the best, so you can't go wrong with either one.

An old army jeep?

My exhaust sounds more like a race car. All three exhausts sound great. If you go with performance over sound then either Bassani or Magnaflow is for you. Both tend to dyno the highest. If you go with loudness then Borla Stinger is the loudest. Bassani Street Comp is second and Magnaflow is last. If you go with sound Borla Stinger gives you a musclular badazz sound. Bassani sounds more exotic/race car like. As for Magnaflow, its hard to describe. They sound "well tuned."

I also narrowed it down to Bassani vs. Borla Stingers. In the end, I went with Bassani.......... NO REGRETS AT ALL! It is AMAZING!


However, there is a new "King of the Jungle": JBAs new SS catback (not sure of it's "specific name."

Here is "RikkiRacer's" (from IMBOC) complete JBA setup: Midlength headers, H-pipe with cats (made by MRT) and catback.


Best sounding exhaust I've EVER heard!!!

I have owned both the borla stinger catback and the bassani street competition catback on my Mustang Gt convertible. Of the two, I like the borla stinger catback both for the sound it gives and the quality of worksmanship and fitment that it provides. I had trouble like man other people with the bassani catback pipe hitting against the plastic cover of the fuel tank. In adddition I really didn't care for the polished slashed cut tips of the bassani catback. I like the chrome rolled tips of the borla stinger catback. Like I said having forked out the money for both and from my personal experience with both catback i still have to say that the borla stinger is the best choice.

I may be bias but I love my Borla. Had flows before and the Borla sounds great. Bassani just doenst sound like it should be on a mustang . Doesnt mean it sounds bad just kinda out of place. JMO

Fit and finish on Borla was perfect. Did it myself on the floor in about an hour and a half and that was because of the damn battery powered sawzall that would run out of juice.
