I've had a Bassini X for a year now---no problems so far.

I had a magnaflow X-pipe for over 2 years and didn't have any problems with it at all. Only reason I removed mine is that I got the Dynamax system which has its own x-pipe with the system.

I'd get the X-Pipe designed for the exhaust system that I bought.

all the major brands look very similar to me. I bought the cheapest, and no problem. It did improve the sound, mainly on deceleration down hills.
