OK GUYS HERE IS MY ORDEAL.

What's better BBK HEADERS OR JBA HEADERS?

ALSO,

BBK OFF-ROAD XPIPE OR BASSINI OFF-ROAD XPIPE?

BEST COMBINATION...?

I HAVE TURN DOWNS WITH FLOWMASTERS.

WHAT ARE YOUR OPINIONS?

AND HOW DO THEY SOUND?

JBA HEADERS WITH A BASSANI.. THEY ARE BOTH TYPE OF THE LINE ITEMS. JBA HEADERS ARE EXPENSIVE AND SO IS THE BASSANI OVER THE BBK X PIPE.

All the parts mentioned above would sound identical on a sbf fox...zero difference when your running the same mufflers,shorties are shorties and an x pipe is an x pipe...get longtubes stick with an x pipe and run over the axle tail pipes,now that's an exhaust!!!

Jba shorties & the Bassini. Both companies do top of the line stuff. If you do use bbk headers, make sure to get the 1 flange headers.

For the price and quality of BBK you can't go wrong, I've been running the same equal length chrome shorty headers for about 6 years now and have to remove them to swap out heads and engines for repairs etc. and have had no issues bolting them back on. Same goes for their mid-pipes [patriot]

Thank you guys for all of the input!!

I decided to go with JBA and Bassani and wouldn't you know it I ended up picking up a pair of JBA Shorty headers for 40 bucks and a bassini off-road xpipe for 50 bucks

I've got my xpipe on and it sounds beast. I haven't put my headers on yet because they need studs put on and a carb sticker.

Thanks again guys!!!!
