Bassanni Side Exit (in front of rear tire) cat-back
Hi all, I just got a 2004 Ranger XLT extended cab 4x4, 4.0, auto. I really like it so far, I've got an old 88 that I really like too so when I was looking to get a newer truck it was a natural choice. Anyways, I would like to put a nice cat back on it for improved sound and looks. I'm leaning towards the Magnaflow Dual Exit Cat Back, but I saw that Bassanni makes a cat back that exits in front of the rear tire. I was wonding if any of you are running that sytem because I can't find much info on it. Also, I noticed the gibson dual exit exhaust is listed as only fitting the 2WD Rangers, but the magnaflow dual exit kit fits 2WD and 4WD? Aren't those pretty much the same kit? Anyways, I'd really appreciate you guy's input on choosing an exhaust for my Ranger. Thanks.

Don't know much about Bassani or Gibson. Although I do think Bassani is of a higher quality exhaust and they cost a pretty dollar.
Me personally, I like Magnaflow. There free flowing and give the cleanest sound IMO. Most, note I said most, aftermarket performance mufflers are a free flowing design. It's the internal core design, packing material and the muffler shell design are what determines the sound produced and flow characteristics. So I'd say go for the Magnaflow, but to each his own -Mike-

Bassani is gonna be more expensive I bet, anyone know what kinda money that kit costs?
I'm just thinking thinking of cutting my stock muffler and welding on a aftermarket muffler to the existing piping since its brand new and all... I just don't know what brand I wanna go with I want it mostly for HP... Borla, right?

I've had the Bassani stainless cat-back for about 3 1/2 years, and it's great. No rust at all (Chicago LOVES to throw salt). I paid about $450-500 if I remember correctly. The kit on ebay is probably aluminized, which they now make in addition to all stainless, when I got mine it was stainless only.
