Default I Want Torque !!!!

I've heard Bassani Headers make great torque numbers!??!

Is this True?

Since i dont drive at more than 160MPH
too often i end up sliding through corners
and tricked into lots of donuts and
100 ft burnouts all the time.

Ive actually heard they are some of the worse in terms of build quality and performance. This is all based on what people tell me, Ive never personally had them.

I don't know about Bassani but I hear LG and Dynatech make good low end torque.

LG Pro put 12 rwhp WITH OUT a tune. Not bad for untuned. Plus they sound AWESOME!

I can say yes with stock or low flowing heads and a mild cam...thru out the low range power band they perform great..I have a set in the Sale section that I took off my car because I had to go to a bigger set of headers to support my larger cam and higher flowing heads..
