Bassani exhaust kits are finally available

Don't know if it is the server from the site, but i'm having a hard time checking out info on the new 2011 GT 5.0 kits, but it is available. That's good news......... I don't see any pricing as of now . Neither do i see kits for manuals. Just auto's.

Do you know if you need a tune and handheld device for this set up?
And what would this mean?
****Offroad and/or Catalytic converter adaptors and Long Tubes are in development. Release date to be announced.****

The "downpipes" from the stock manifolds that have the catalytic converters on them. Right now, this Bassani setup bolts to the end of them and doesn't replace them. In the future, Bassani will offer either the offroad pipes or pipes with high flow cats.

It appears you will be able to use this setup with either stock manifolds, or long tube headers. You will only have to replace the "down pipes". I really like that idea. If you bought Lethal Performances Offroad X-pipe, you would not be able to use it with long tube headers and would have to completely replace the whole midpipe.

Bassanis setup makes it a lot easier.

So are they saying the axle backs drone?

***NOTE: Due to the nature of these mufflers, they create high resonance sound characteristics.***

If it's after the catalytic converters you won't need one. The cars computer doesn't monitor anything other than emissions past the converters. That is unless you remove the converters.

As the other guy said, as long as you keep the stock catalytic converters, you will not need a tuner.

But, even then, it would only be needed to turn off the rear O2 monitors and Cat Over Temp settings. I've had several vehicles with offroad pipes and check engine lights caused by it with no negative affects on performance. But the light is annoying. ha

If what we hear in the vid is high resonance sound characteristics, i'm having no problem with that. But hard to tell from just a vid. The interior sound might be a different story though.

Crap. I really don't want to spend $1100 on exhaust, but it sounds SO INCREDIBLE!!

Well I just ordered it WOOOOHOOOOO. It was very expensive but IMO you pay for what you get. Shipping was not all that bad all the way to Alaska.

I will of course write a review once I get them but I have a feeling it will not be fore at least 2 weeks.
