I'm going to be picking up one of these Bassani SS OR X-Pipe's, along with a set of FRPP Jet Hot SS shorties this week. I have been doing my research, and I came upon the best picture I've seen for the one I need...part # 50932.

Anyhow, from the picture I see, I can't see any holes for the O2 sensors? I'm assuming it has them and I just can't see them?

Are they just on the other side of the tube that I can't see? Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just want to make sure before I drop $300 on a OR X pipe...

Thanks..

It will have the 02 sensor bungs for it...to confirm I would call or email them but I don't see why they wouldn't have any.

The Bassani Offroad X pipe that my friend and I installed today on her 04 Mach 1 had the 02 bungs That complimented with a Borla Stinger cat-back makes a very loud and aggressive combination to compete with on the DOHC... It sounded unbelievable

Sweet..thanks. I figured it would and I just wanted to be sure...$300 is a lot for a OR X...but I think it's worth it. Anything is better than this falling off the car POS Summit OR H I've got on there now.

The car has the 3 chamber Flowmaster kit on it now, but when money permits, I'll prolly go with the Magnaflow catback and be all SS motor to tailpipes...

I drive the car year round up here in NH, so I need something that will hold up to salt...

Thanks again...

The O2s are in this position:

You can't see them because they are in the shadowed area.

That's what I thought...thanks guys. It looks like from that picture that is comes completely assembled...that's a nice change over the OR H Pipes I've installed over the years....looks really well made.

$300 shipped is the best price I could find...anyone know of any better offers?

Well when I looked at the Bassani and Borla quality...it is worth the price tag...which is why my friend bought it...

Good Luck!

Ok, this exhaust upgrade is turning out bad before I have even tried to install anything...

Just got the pipe from Bassani, and it's in three pieces. One of the main reasons I bought this pipe was thinking it was a one piece setup. Going by the pictures I've seen like the one above, it shows it as one piece, but not the one I got.

This sucks...I didn't want to use clamps, and I didn't want to get a shop involved to weld it.

Is there ANY stainless OR X or H pipe that comes in ONE ****ING PIECE?

Thanks..

However, since I already have to send my FRPP ceramic shorties back, I don't think I will be able to afford to ship the Bassani back, pay for shipping, wait for a refund, and then get the VRS...

Thanks for the suggestion though....

Keep the Bassani. The different pieces allow you to make it fit better overall. It is supposed to be that way. The clamps won't leak.
