I installed the Bassani axleback system with the rolled tips yesterday and I wasn't disapointed. Sounds even better in person than on the numerous clips available here. Hardly any drone at all, and the sound at WOT is simply amazing. Install took maybe 90 mins and the fit was almost perfect, had to loosen one side at the h-pipe and adjust a bit, but short of that it went flawlessly.
Made a quick run around the neighborhood with the mufflers off, and boy that was fun.
Purchased the rig from Nino over at Ninosport, I can't recommend this guy enough. He gave a great price, quick turnaround on the equipment, and a nice guy to deal with.

Funny that it was an SS that was needed...and ****'s were mentioned....How ironic is that? Altoid is such a nut.....gotta love him.....spelling is a pet peave of mine as well....I wish I wasn't that way, but I cringe on here on a daily basis because of it.....I'm so bad I go back and proof all of my posts after the fact and edit them for spelling issues....haha Glad to see more people taking the Bassani plunge...I was one of the very first to have them installed while everyone else was buying Magnaflows, and I wouldn't have it any other way....They sound AMAZING!

"The SS was primarily the instrument through which the **** racial doctrine was implemented and enforced. Led by the empire-building Himmler, it took on other select tasks (such as fighting the war). However, it is best understood as a reflection of the **** party's desires and views of itself. "

At 70mph with your foot lightly on the gas you can hardly hear them at all....If you punch it they sound great....you're able to control them pretty well just from feathering the pedal to keep them from being an annoyance if that's your concern......No complaints on my end....

They don't have any noticeable drone or sound cruising at 70MPH, or any freeway speed for that matter. And no "pops" and "farts" like many of the others when letting off the pedal. Very refined tone, but don't mistake them for being too quiet - they roar when you want/need them to the most!

Appreciate your opinion. We have a number of road checks around here and I was wondering how quiet they would be under idle with the police standing next to it.

i have noticed, and i'm not sure if johns does this, but at around 2000 rpm the exhaust really resonates. it's not really bad, and it seems taht after the car heats up, it goes away...but it still does it.
it typically resonates from 1st -2nd, sometimes 3rd,
right at 2000 rpm. i don't mind it, because the upsides of the exhaust is just unbeliveable. i mean the sound is fantastic...other cars tremble in your presence.
