Dr. Gas ranks right up there as one of the best performing aftermarket midpipes. The power debate about "cats Vs no cats" is pretty much non-existant thanks to today's high quality catalytic converters (naturally aspirated engines).

Yeah, I got the Magnaflow catted x too but with Bullitt mufflers. I have not dyno'd yet but it sounds good.

I've herd plenty of people say that the Bassani cats usually die/clog in a year or less and if they ever hit anything(speed bump) they die. I haven't herd any good or bad things about the magnaflow x-pipe yet though.
Personally I am going with a catted pipe because the 1/2 hp you get from no cats isn't worth the polution/risk of getting a ticket.

Dr. Gas all the way. Sounds bad ass with a magnaflow CB, and the gains are higher than any other.

I had Bassani on my 2001 Cobra and it sounded soooo good.


I would go with a Bassani X- pipe.

Bassani is notorious for problems with cats on the 99+ cars(don't know about before that).
Just a quick search over on the corral for "bassani x-pipe".

Ditto; Words cannot describe the sound.

Had my Bassanis for 2 years now and no problems at all.
