I'm looking at getting exhaust for my L as the next mod (these mods are getting addictive....), and I'm trying to decide between JDM's Silver Bullet catback and the Bassani catback. I've heard a sound clip of the SilverBullet with stock headers and cats, but not the Bassani. Does anyone have a soundclip of the bassani with stock headers and cats? I'd also be interested in people's general opinions on either of these systems if you have them.

Thanks,

Bassani.....

I got the Bassani Cat Back and i love it one of my favorite mods i have done to the truck. The sound is plain sick you can hear me from a block away. The best part are the tips are 4inches and stainless so they shine. Also i didnt lose anything with it and i know they say you dont gain anything with it but it felt like i did. I cat wait to get the JDM headers and high flow cats Chikenears sent me a sound file of it and all i can say is wow.

I was originally planning on the Bassani, but I'm just trying to justify the $100 difference in price. It be an easy decision if I was able to hear the systems in person, but that's not possible. Anyone who has the Silver Bullet system have any comments? Anyone have a sound clip of the Bassani?

J15BIG - Yeah, I used to live in Foster City a few years ago. I'm waiting for Sears Point to open up on Wednesday nights in April so I can go and whoop my friend's stock '99 cobra and my other friend's Nova Wagon that runs 13.5's. With the work I've done so far (2lb. lower, Denso's, JDM/Rancho bars, Western Shackles, K&N Filtercharger, gauge pillar with UltraLite boost and fuel pressure, ARE LSII Tonneau, BedRug) I think it should be no problem. I still can't believe how much I've modded this thing and I only have 900miles on the clock.

Here is a link to a clip of mine:

Well, I can tell you that the Bassani does sound sweet, I have the full Bassani with the coated headers, But now I am going to try the Full JDM exhaust with the Silver Bullets. JDM long tubes, high flow cats and the Silver Bullets should make for an awesome sounding exhaust with gaining in H.P.
If you wait a few weeks I will give you my opinion when I get my truck back with the new JDM system. I love the way the Bassani sounds so If it sounds better than that it will be awesome.

I Just got a set of SPINTECH'S "cat-backs", I will be installing them perhaps this weekend. Does anyone have a set???

 

That is ONE FAT CAT!

 

Where and how much? I've been talking to them already. 400.00?

 

QuickSilver02, what part of Redwood City are you from ? i'm just off Woodside rd & Hudson.


FRITZ, Stock Silver 2001 "L"

 

Dr. D . Ordered 2-26-02 received 3-18-02 (a lot longer than I expected) $375.00 + shipping; uh, yes probably $400.00

 

where are the tips? Or are you suppose to reuse the stock ones?

 

Well, I ordered the Bassani. Should be here in a few days Thanks for all the help everyone.

Fritz - I'm right off Edgewood road by Alameda, up in the hills a bit. I actually grew up on Dewey, right off of Roosevelt. Good to know that there are some fellow L owners so close by. Let me know if you want to check out any of my mods before you do anything to your truck. Haven't seen any other Silver L's around here. Just black and red.
