I just had this put on and all I can say is Wow, It does seem to have a lot more torque and pulls harder throughout the powerband. I also think it sounds great, there is little or no drone and sounds sort of stock until I give it gas than it sounds like a beast.

hey did yours make a rattling noise not like a rasp but more like a noise like something is not clamped right or something along the lines of it was hitting something.......but regardless it should be a quick painless fix and also how long did your exhaust have a bad smell after it was put on

I've made numerous calls and been told by multiple sources, bassani included on two seperate occasions, that the Bassani system comes in two boxes with a combined shipping weight of 83 lbs. I have no idea on what the boxes or packing material weighs.

Just giving the info two different bassani representatives gave me on different occasions. I can even list each boxes precise geometric dimensions. Each one also said: two boxes = 83 lbs.
Now, I personally do really love the bassani design, but one of the following three instances is occuring: A) Bassani's shipping weight in their database for this exhaust is off by 19 lbs/23% B) Bassani's number is right and they package this system so well that they require at least 20 lbs of cardboard, tape, and foam to secure, or C) Its 64 lbs for two boxes and they use very light packing materials.
Either way, with all the weight numbers varying by such a large margin. Until I hear a few more independent weighings/tests I'll keep researching, searching, and comparing.

It did have a assload of packaging to be honest. I ordered mine from bassani also and I was told 67 lbs but when I weighed it on a scale it was actually 64 lbs but it does not matter one way or another

http://www.bassani.com/dealers/
I'm pretty sure they can ship it to the dealers and install it there.
