OMG... Bassani FTW!

I'm basically too excited to wait until I can get some video clips, sometime tomorrow for sure. Anyway...

Cliff notes: This is the best exhaust I've ever had, and ever heard, it solved all my problems I was having with my old cat-back and magnaflows and issues I was blaming on my mid-pipes. It sounds like pure sex with the maggie... which I can finally HEAR again....

Long version....

I'll do this tomorrow, must sleep, make it quicker until I can drive the car!

I want to thank Maryland Speed for the awesome group buy, and quick service as usual.

*edit*

Been super busy, but here is a quick and dirty clip....

johnwins, ls2tiger has a magnaflow x-pipe listed in the for sale section. This is the x I used and its much louder than the bassani one. All you wold need to do to make it work is cut it down in length.

To the OP: you've just discovered one of the best exhausts for these cars.

New exhaust is always one of the most fun mods...now you have to update your sig.

I have had my Bassani since October of last year and I love it. With a cam it really brings out the sound. Congrats to the OP.

Sounds really good, I was in the process of piecing together a Bassani system for my 04 when the Corsa setup I have pretty much fell into my lap.

I love my Bassani. Thanks Maryland Speed!

Problem though is alignment of the driver tailpipe... too far back and too low... going to get under the car next weekend and see if I can't convince it to get in the right spot. Otherwise, the BEST sound!

I have the same issue! I've seen another one that was this way too. I'm going to try to shorten the one pipe and bend the hangar.

I didn't have any problems aligning up the tips or anything, but the lengths were different. The passenger side had a lot of play so I could tuck in the tips or have them out a bit, the driver side though would only go in so far (an inch or so of the top of the tip sticking out). It worked out okay, but I think I would have liked to have them tucked in about half an inch more. All I'd have to do is cut the slip fitting on the aft piece DS a little bit and it would be perfect...

Glad you're happy with it! The maggie sounds great with it as well.

I love my APS/Bassani combo as well - it's an interesting mix of quiet and deep at idle, and get the hell out of the way under boost haha

We had mine on a lift at SNL and couldn't get the driver's side to pull in enough. Next time I have it on jackstands I'll pull it off and buzz an inch or so off of the muffer back pipe.
