Have anybody heard both Borla and Bassani? If you do which one would you put in your 05 Mustang GT, and why?

i have heard both...Although both sound pretty nice I would go with the bassani kit because IMO the sound is a bot more muscular than the Borla and the Borla kits are ALWAYS ON BACKORDER for months!

bassani is not bad. deep, but a little raspy. to me, nothing beats borla- deep, mean and smooth. btw, ford racing and steeda are made by Borla.

email kevin (05stangkc) if you want the Ford Racing exhaust

Well I work for Magnaflow-

but if FORCED to choose between the two-

I would take Bassani hands down- just my own personal opinion-

and I am about the most unbiased opinion you are going to get here-

Of course my first choice would be Magnaflow though- lol

Many here seem to like the Bassani sound. For me it is a bit too raspy and I prefer the DEEPER and THROATIER borla setup, but like Chris said, Borla's are always backordered.

I bought Bassani. Love it. Stainless steel, fitment was perfect, sound is great at all times. Not too loud except when I want it that way.

Thanks for the vote, now I love my Bassani even more.

Bassini sounds better than Borla - on my 05 - Bassini is plenty deep, smooth and rumbles nicely when you hit it to 2500 and hold it - all stainless -- beauty is too - on hi-way cruising they fade out.....

I love it when people say that one exhaust sounds better than the other. It is a totally subjective thing and you have to listen to the exhaust that you want (in person) to truly make up your mind. There are many systems available and many opinions on which is the best. Do your workwork and then make a decision. Nuff said~

Yes...all exhausts sound different... (BORLA)...it is up to each and every individual to pick one that suits them...(BORLA)...none are the "best"...(BORLA)..

Heheh but Rich is right. ALL exhausts will be judged different, and all will SOUND different on VIDEOS!
