Default Upr X pipe or Bassani x?

I am deciding on which is better? I havent had any experiences with both these brands before so i need some input?? Are the upr x pipe's ss?? I know the bassani's are!!! Also are thos MIL eliminators necessary to buy, is it hard to get the engine light off when you install an exhaust system? Buy the x pipe or cats first??

Also does it matter to install both the x pipe n cats at the same time or one part at a time? Does it matter??? I doubt it.. But wont cuttin/weldin over/over mess anything up?? Jus wondering

Thanks

No the UPR isnt ss.You buy a X pipe with cats or no cats not seperatly.You will need Mils if you buy on O/R X or get a tuner to shut them off.The Bassani only sounds good with a Bassani catback in my opinion.I would get an SLP X or a Magnaflow if it was me or if you want to get an H the MRT is the only SS H pipe out there but a little pricey.

Alot of people buy the UPR X for the price and they mostly seem to like it.A Mac Prochamber would be a real good choice too.

UPR is $139.95.....Bassani is way overpriced like most Bassani stuff. I bought UPR X for $150 ran it for 2 years sold it for $100 2 days ago. Don't spend a lot of money on X's.....when you switch to longtubes (and you will) the X is worthless.....unless you want to pay somebody to cut it to fit LT's. I had less than $425 invested in my shorties/UPR/Flows. I now have LT's/X/Flows with less than $700 in the whole thing. The most expensive isn't always the best. Spend your money wisely.

Congrats on the magnaflows buddy...I just recommend slp because i never had any problem with them. Magnaflows dont give much of a tone either, slp lets it rip

Not looking for how "loud" it is but the quality!! I sure hope this combo gives me that nice tone rumble" that im lookin for!! Lances do you think i could get it cheaper than the price listed on the website if i called, an asked for joe! I saw an magna x for $379 on ebay! But i dont know if i should trust ebay??
