exhaust ideas.
I going too redoo my whole exhaust when I get more money, and need a few ideas.
I plan on some coated shortie headers and about 2" pipe too a Y-pipe, and a 3" too a 3-chamber flowmaster then a 45 down pipe.
Where can I get a high flow y-pipe?
or the whole sytem like this?
Thanks,
Clint

you can get the bassani headers, which will bolt up to your stock y-pipe, the bassani y-pipe comes with the high flow cat, you'd have to contact the supplier to see if they would sell it to you w/o the cat and then you could bolt up any after market cat back system you like, the reason I am getting the compleat system because it is all designed to work togeather, my thought is if I am going to spend that much money I want max performance, also the bassani system will sound as good if not better than any other system, one thing that you need to take into account is the design of the system and bassani has done a great job, I don't have my system yet but I have been researching all the systems out there and I know a gut who has the bassani system on his F-150 and I'll tell you the thing sound's awesome!!

You couldn't PAY me to put Flowmaster equipment under my rig. Why bother with it? Its just gonna rust away in two years anyway! The Bassani stuff is all stainless and the muffler is fully welded on every seam. Not to mention you won't get that atrocious pop and snap when you come down out of the accelerator that flowmasters seem to be so good at allowing. Yeah, thats what I want...make my truck sound like an oversized lawnmower with a crappy choke adjustment. Sorry guys. Obviously I have very strong opinions against flowmaster. Its obviously your choice but for the record, Flowmaster = Flushmaster in my book.
Bassani at least takes the time to actually build a complete system that is tuned and designed to work with the engine in that truck. Flowmaster builds a bunch of so-called high performance mufflers that may or may not be the most efficient unit for the engine/vehicle in question. The Bassani unit is designed and built FOR the vehicle/engine combination that it is listed under. Not so with Flowmaster's "generic" mufflers. They cannot make the claim that they took the time to actually tune the muffler to work optimally with the exhaust system for a 302 or a 351 IN a Bronco! Bassani DOES so they can make this claim. And that my friends is why you pay more for the Bassani equipment! Its called "research and developement". Its called building quality rather than quantity.

Grey, you make alot of very good points, I do kinda like the back fire sound of a wide open exhaust tho.
But I also, like the idea of getting the whole system. Do you have too e-mail bassani for a price of what I want? With a bassani muffler of course.
I don't want any cats either.
Thanks,
Clint

BroncoRoadKill,
Proficient Performance and there is another site that has been tossed around lately with "better" pricing as I understand it. (can't recall the name right now unfortunately). YOu won't necessarily need to contaqct Bassani directly but, their site will give you complete part numbers and descriptions of the components to the system you are looking for.
Oh and the comment I made about the "pop and snap" was more in reference to the excessive amount of this that occurs during deceleration. I do realize that some people appreciate this "sound" to their exhaust. Again its personal taste and therefore an option to consider.

ressurected thread.
hey greystreak, you wouldnt remember that site you were talking about would you? cause the price comes out too about 650 with the headers and y-pipe.
Thats some big bucks.
I was looking at just the bassani headers and y-pipe and I thinking of putting my own 3" pipe with flowmaster after their offroad pipe with a 45 down out of the flowmaster.

BroncoRoadKill,
Man, sorry, I've been sitting here racking my brain and I can't think of the name of that site. The best prices I've seen listed for Bassani products lately have been at www.ampperformance.com Unfortunately, their website is down for maintenance at the moment. It does list their phone numbers and other contact info it you are interested.
I spent just about a grand on the complete system a couple years back from Tommie Vaughn Ford in Houston So the 650 pricetag doesn't sound all that bad to me but then we are talking about stainless exhaust here that produces more HP and more torque than the competition in EVERY test run on it.
