Got me a pair of Bassani mufflers. Got the in them mail today, and wasted no time cutting the Bullets off and putting these on. It was pretty late so I didnt get a chance to hear it, I'll just have to wait till tomorrow. I was running the same setup before just Dynomax Bullets instead, it was just too loud and annoying. If these are just a tad bit quieter and a little more exotic sounding I will be happy. I will try and get a sound clip tomorrow if you guys are interested.
I like Bassani, they have a very nice sound. With a full cat back, the exhaust note is deeper at idle, the cruise sound is very mellow you can actually hear yourself think, no drone and WOT sounds awesome. I believe they advertise them as "Quiet Thunder". At least they did 10 years ago when I used to be a distributor and installer of them.
I am excited to hear them, I've had the bullets on for like 5 years now, I am so ready for something new. Ever since I saw this car I've always wanted bassani.
Where did you get them and how was the price?
I actually got them from a guy on stangnet classifieds for 130 shipped. Just the mufflers, I had already made the catback before with my Bullets. I just took a piece of straight pipe, had a muffler shop flare it out to fit on the ball of the mid pipe, put a flange on it, and welded the bullets on. I moved them around into place and tacked a hanger on em. So for these I just cut the bullets off and clamped the Bassani's and called it a day (with my welding skills and welder thought a clamp would be cleaner).

same reason i got a pair of bassani's too because of this vid
Im gonna try and get a good video tomorrow. They sound really good, I love the idle and low rpm's on em, up top though they really arent very loud at all, not as loud as I would like, but I did just come off from using the Bullets so I am going to have to get used to them. It feels like I'm driving a street car now though at least rather than just some savage race car that really wasn't even that fast (what it's like driving with Bullets).
