What H pipe did you get to use with your Bassani cats? I have been considering getting the MRT catted H pipe to go along with my Roush Extreme cat back (also a resonator style exhaust)... but I always heard the metallic spun cats were better than the traditional ceramic. I know the MRT pipe is pricey, but till I'd get a SS off-road H, the Bassani cats, and labor to weld the cats into the new pipe, I probably wouldn't be saving much over the MRT pipe (which gets fantastic reviews for fit, quality, etc.).

Mine just a pypes O/R H pipe cut and welded behind the cats of what was originaly a bassani catted X pipe. ive heard good things about the MRT H pipe, so id imagine it would be money well spent!

Ive heard some horror stories of ceramics melting..etc and clogging up the flow, and that would be catastrophic with FI. metallics dont seem to have that problem..so better safe than sorry!
