Bassani True Duals...
Okay, decided (finally) to get an exhaust. After much contemplation, I've decided to go with the Bassani True Dual system offered through Vinci. In reference to "Headers" though, any recommendations to be used w/this system?
Have read many articles about the Bassani "Tri-Y" headers for the F-Body soon to be released, but this seems to be a seriously delayed project (unless I missed they're release). Not too concerned about Long Tubes, as I might have to run the cats anyways... and have been considering MAC Mid-Lengths.
Opinions would be greatly appreciated!

I just intalled my bassani true duals, I got the pictures on this link:http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2372915
Watch out when you get yours installed make sure you don't get the actual X pipe hit the transmission tunnel. I had a few of issues on mine (I pipes were too long, and the X pipe were hitting the tunnel, tail pipe pieces were short) It's fixed now though, and in the end its worth it. The Z feels fastah.

Then again, with Kooks being a mere hour and a half from my home, I'm not too concerned though to tell you the truth...

you're telling me. i get to hang out with the owner of bassani (darrell bassani) when he comes to bradenton, fl with the NMCA races. he 'borrows' my cars for display purposes. so, of course, i put a bug in his ear each time about the headers.
here's some pics from the 2005 races
L to R mine, joe vinci's car, hers
i decided to enter the burnout contest
i bought the rear tires the friday before. drove 150 miles there. drove another 100 miles back and forth to a friends house. did the burnout contest. and drove home on this: 600 miles and GONE!!!
