I have Flows on my cobra and am about to put on a Basanni X pipe with cats. I hear people talk about how an X with flows doesnt sound right. does anyone have this combo so i can see what it sounds like before i install it. A clip would be great. I looked in the exhaust thread and no one there had it. I also checked youtube to no avail.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

I loved my Flows with the stock h, it was pretty good with the Bassani catted x, not so good with the Hooker L/Ts and O/R x. I don't have any clips though. Even with the L/Ts and O/R X it didn't sound terrible. The Bassini x is a great piece and probably one of the biggest seat of teh pants dyno feels of the bolt ons. Get it, you won't be dissapointed.

I have a O/R X with flows and I hate it. it sounds wierd. under lower rpms like between 1800-2400rpms it sounds great. nice deep tone but once it's up top it sounds like doo doo IMO.

That's an O/R X..... a catted X will sound a little less "whappy".

Everyone seems to hate them but IMO, Flows and MRT H FTW!!! :rockon:

Go with a different X pipe if you don't want that tin can rattle sound. I had this same sound shown in the video with my Bassani O/R X and Bassani catback. I hated it and switched my whole exhaust out. I went with UPR because it has different X design and sounds smoother and deeper.

This is a Bassani O/R X with Flowmaster catback.

This is what convinced me to switch to my current setup.

See, the funny part about that is that Mac and Flow catbacks sound almost identical.

There's a difference..

Flows with O/R X

Mac with O/R X

The flows have the rattle can sound with O/R X while the mac's don't. Flows with a catted x sound great IMO
