Just wondering which x-pipes install without fitment issues. I have been told that the only ones that fit correctly are Bassani and Magnaflow.

If anyone has used another brand without any issue, please let me know! Thanks!

This is for an 03 Cobra

I went with a Magnaflow myself and it fit perfectly. I haven't heard of any regular fitment issues with any of the major name-brand mid-pipes though.

U.M.

Thanks. I figure they all should fit correctly, but some may be better than others...

i have always used bbk and have never had a fitment problem.. i love the way that they sound/look and how they hold up.. i also have used mac and i like their 3 piece design.. it gives you more adjustments to getting it tucked up on the car better so it doesn't drag.. espically if you lower your cars like i do... hehe

Thanks for the info. I didn't want to buy a 3 or 4 hundred dollar midpipe since I plan on doing headers next year sometime.

I had BBK's on my last Mustang. They were nice, but do pose problems with the tranny. I think I am going to either run the Bassani Mid-Lengths or the SLP's

I have an SLP O/R x and it fits perfectly. It hangs a little lower though.
