my buddy has an 03, with long tube headers and the bassini, it sounds MEAN!!. but i worn you it's loud as hell when your on it, my flowmaster super 40, on my 05 screw sounds almost stock compared to his lightning. the bassini does not have any drone inside the cab with the window's closed. one time a harley tried race him, i was in the pass seat with the window open and could not hear the harley with straight pipes. i have no clue how many miles are on his, or how long it's been on there.

hopefully this spring when i get my L, i'll be getting the bassini exhaust but the truck will only be a weekend warrior
