Source of Bassini stink isolated

I just got my Bassini kit installed. Prior to installing, I noticed during the parts inspection that some of the pipes had a dripped-in waxy kind of yellowish compound. I scraped some of it out and put it over a flame. Phew... After installing the pipes and warming up the beast, same smell. So whatever that stuff is, that's the source of the smell.

BTW I notice much stronger midrange and top-end with the Bassini system, not to mention a helluva GP sound at WOT.

The Bassani system does sound awesome, I love mine and am ditching it for the JDM longtubes and full exhaust, from what I have heard this system sounds even better. If it does than that is awesome because I love the way my truck sounds with the full Bassani. I can't wait to hear it under a full throttle run.

I would keep your cat-back and install the long tubes and high flow cats the sound is down right nasty!!!!!!!!!

Besides it will save you some coin since you already have the cat - back...

Bob Tompkins,
A few people have told me that, and it does sould like the smart thing to do. But, and isn't there always a but I really want to be a driving advertisment for JDM. So I would like to run as much of what he has to offer that I can afford. Some may think that is wierd or crazy, but when I decide to do something I like to do it all the way if posible and I always give everything 130 percent.

Wow, that was incredible, I love it, that will give me something to think about. I was planning on going with the JDM longtubes, high flow converters, and the silver bullet exhaust. Your sound will be tough to beat, we will see. And thanks for your opinion and for letting me listen to your truck.
