Need help!

Is it going to be worth spending $1500 on a full Bassani exhaust.
It's alot money and I want to make sure Im not makeing a big mistake.
Im also buyng a Volant intake.
Will I have a noticeable improvment?

I have a Diablo chip already.

Any advice is helpfull.

From what I've been reading, Exhaust only changes the sound but doesn't do much for performance. (less bang for the buck)

If you just want to change the sound of the truck, buy a cat back

If you want performance look elsewhere to spend all that money.

Don't waste the money on a full Bassani. Buy the long tube header setup. Shorties won't gain you anything.

FWIW:

I got into the 12s with the stock exhaust so if you're looking for performance, go the pulley route. I did install a JDM c/b recently for the sound and the weight savings. I d/k if it helped any but I didn't 'back up' in performance.

You might want to email Rusty. He had the 'full' basanni set-up and replaced it with long tube headers and kept the Basanni muffler.
