I bought a used Bassani catted-X from another Stangnetter, and had a shop install it since it looked like a PITA. I was very impressed with the quality and fit of the Bassani X-pipe. For example, the X-pipe has threaded mounts for BOTH pairs of O2 sensors. No pesky mil-eliminators needed! The car hasn't thrown a code and it has a mean, exotic car sound. There is a slight increase in power in the mid-upper rpm range and the torque curve is much smoother. BTW, I felt no loss of low-end torque with this X-pipe, if anything it is now better. Although I prefer the throaty, muscle-car sound, this X-pipe is hard to beat. Bassani definitely does their homework!

every catted X should come w/ threaded O2 sensor holes and shouldn't throw a code. It basically comes down to sound prefrance, glad u like it

For a catted X I don't know why you would need mil-eliminators. My Bassani X has never thrown a code, and I luv the sound. Very aggressive with my 'Packs.

My bassani X threw a code, then I just took the cats out all together, then finally got fed up and got MIL's.

The bassani was a nice piece, fit good and sounded good too with my flows. Just wasnt loud enough for me.
