Go for the Bassani X-pipe, I'm sure many will agree

We don't currently have one....got a Bassani X pipe and Corsa exhaust in transit.

Go ahead and install the Borla by itself and see what you think.....

You can always add the Xpipe later if you think you need one (with the Borla).

My husband totally hates the burble sounds and why we ordered the Xpipe.

Spend a little more and go with the Dynatech long tubes...

That package comes with the x-pipe...





Here is a sound clip (with stingers...) SOUND UP!

If you have any drone or popping, it will help eliminate that.
