pretty self explanatory, wat do you guys think of them. im getting ready to purchase exhaust from the headers back and as much as i LOVE quality i dont want to be paying for a name. i know they're kinda expensive, but i dont have a problem paying that price as long as i know its THAT GOOD and not the same as say BBK.

so basically my question is if you guys had the money, would you purchase bassani parts or do you think its a waste?

Bassani is among the best exhaust products that exist for a mustang.
Get the bx version, which will save you alot of cash over the SS.
I have a bassani SS x pipe, and i would deem it, indestructable, but the bx still have a good rep.

thanks for the response, i knew they hadta be good, i just didnt know if they were that much better for the price ya know?

and sorry if im being ignorant, wats the difference between the BX and SS. Basically why did you choose the SS if the BX isnt too much different?

Bx is aluminized steel, which i truely don't know what the meaning is, but it's still quality.
SS is Stainless Steel, which is as tough as it gets for exhaust.

I had mine long ago, since before they came out with the budget BX kits that's why i have the SS.

If you have the money and plan on keeping the car forever, get the SS, if not get the BX it still comes with a lifetime warranty.


As far as i know, these guys have the best prices around.

Nice thing too, is that the exhaust is all self installable because of the clamping system they use, and comes in alot pieces so it can be adjusted. (which trust me, you need).
Mac or flowmaster is garbage compared to bassani.

Fit quality is second to none! I have Bassani Quiet Thunder Muffs and 3 inch tips.
When there new its louder on the inside of the car then it is on the outside.
But now there almost 2 years old and its equaled out and they are pretty loud now. They definitly have a unique/exotic sound to them!

Long tubes will make it a little quieter, the off road mid pipe makes up for it though.
No its not quiet, but when there new they make alot of noise in the interior of the car for some reason. But the older they get the better they sound! Mine sound pretty bad ass rite now!

Bassani equal-length headers and off-road X-pipe here. Both are absolute top notch, and well worth the money.
