Well I got my bassani exhaust installed today!!!! (thanks to chikenears)

Sounds great right now, but I heard that it will get even louder after it gets "broken in"....
How long do you guys think this takes??
THANKS!!

 

Give it about a month of hard driving WOOHOO!!! it will defintaley get louder!!!!!

 

Is this true with all aftermarket exhaust systems? (ie, Silver Bullet, Flowmaster, MAC?)

 

Jason,

Like blown318 said, give it a month, maybe less, and it will get louder. I'm glad you're happy, this makes my day, thanks!

Tim

 

Yeah everything was perfect!!

 

If you used the clamps that came with it, just wait, it will get really loud one day.

 

LMAO!!!

seriously though, what he means is that those new band clamps that they come with look great, but don't hold worth chit!

From what I remember, my bassanni changed/improved in tone very noticeably in just a couple of days. It'll probably stink and burn for a couple of days and then sound nice.

good luck.

later,
chris

 

mine sounded sweet from the start. It only got slightly louder/deeper. Either way it's music to the ear

 

BTW I got mine from LFP, and it came with the OLD style clamps. MUCH more secure. There wasn't a chance mine was going anywhere.

 

Mine got noticeably louder about 2 weeks after I put it on............oh wait that was because I added long tubes, oh well nevermind

well chit i hope my clamps hold....that would be REAL disappointing to have it draggin on the ground.

 

Jason,

Where the only problem might arise is where the X-pipe clamps to the Cat pipes. Ford clamps their exhaust so tight (and it IS a good thing) that it crimps the Cat pipes. If you are concerned with it coming loose, I suggest you have it spot welded at this point.

I can send you clamps at no charge but the factory clamps will do the same job as the clamps I send. You tell me what you want and I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy and relaxed.

ok, thanks for your support buddy. I think ill just have it welded in place right there to be extra safe! Hopefully the shop i took it to will do that and for not too much $

 

Like Chikenears was saying............I used the stock clamps they work just fine.

 

ok the stock clamps as in the stockers from bassani or the stock ones from the stock exhaust system? Oh and Tim do you mean you can send me bassani stock clamps or the L stockers?
