Bassani's stuff is very deep. The Stingers are really loud and also deep. I was on a mach cruise and someone had an o/r x pipe with stingers and my god that thing was so loud. Too loud/obnoxious/toneless when under load.

Trust me go with whichever, you sound like yo uwant bassani so simply just press the purchase button and get the anxiety of choosing which one over with!

I've heard a couple different videos of the Bassanni catback at idle, and I dont think it was quite as deep as the videos that I have made of my Stinger with the H...

It's a bit rougher idle in the Bassanni catback from what I can tell, whereas the Stingers have a very deep burbling sound *which i personally love*

It is true, with an O/R midpipe, the borla catback has a bit of a whipping sound, but with an o/r midpipe, just about EVERY catback including bassanni is going to lose a bit of its 'clean' sound to some extent.

I'll post up a video of my Stingers and off road H on here for you to at least consider. Of cours its distorted when revving at higher rpms, but this video gives you a pretty good idea of what that idle sounds like...

I have a full Bassani setup, X Pipes and Catbacks. At Idle you can barely tell I have pipes at all (which I love) but when I step on the Gas everyone near me knows I have after market pipes. I get a deep growl at take off, 2k to 2.5k RPMs its a full roar and at 2.6k and above it switches to a higher pitch race car sound. Was originally going to get Flowmaster CatBacks but after 3 weeks and them not showing up I was given a deep discount on the Bassani ones and have never regretted it. But in the long run its a preference and everyone has an opinion on their fav setup.
