You guys have probally been asked this a million times but here we go. I'm looking at CATTED X-pipes (no offroad stuff) and would like to know which x-pipe to go with. I have seen a BBK and a Catco X in summit but don't know anything about thier fit or quality could someone help me out? Please make some suggestions.

Bassani fits well because its a 3 piece design. Magnaflows are too narrow between the two flanges by 1/2 an inch or so... really makes getting a seal hard. If you need to smog they are great once you get them on.

Same experience here, probably more like an inch too narrow.
Lousy ground clearance as well, just tad more than two inches on a car thats lowered about inch and a half.
In the end I had to cut mine and weld it back together; not something you want to do with a stainless steel x-pipe..
