Default BBK VS. Bassani X-Pipe question

Hey guys, I have a quick question about the sound, quality and performance of two products here. I need to know which one is better hands down, 2.5" BBK X-Pipe or 2.5" Bassani O/R X-Pipe. I am asking because I just got a 2.5" BBK X-Pipe and I am wondering if I should trade it for a Bassani O/R for better sound and performance. I have not yet heard a V6 stang with a BBK X-Pipe but I have heard a Bassani O/R X-Pipe on one and it sounded so awesome.

So im just wondering if the BBK will sound just as good with the same performance? Is there really any difference in the X design where the tubes meet? Which one will last longer too? The one I have was given to me by a friend and has some road rash but thats about it. All the flanges are still good and there is no sign of exhaust leaks anywhere on the welds.

So should I trade for a Bassani or keep the BBK? Thanks guys.


Sincerely Neo

Bassani's always a good name, if they're in equal condition and it's a straight up trade I'd go with with bassani.

Ok cool cool. The X-Pipe is un-catted so it should sound killer

I am kinda confused how to put it up in there but I guess I will be ok when I get everything laid out and ready to go. The other parts I need are full length 1 5/8" headers, two 2.5" collectors, two Flowmaster Series 40 mufflers, about 6ft' of 3" 14g. tubing and 3.5" chrome tips[8D]

Anyone know of any sites that I can get an instalation guild from? Thanks
