I know its basically the Borla kit, but it has tips that are 3.5" and 9" long which in my humble opinion looks nicer than the short Borla "intercooled" tips.

Ive seen some guys posting that they have the catback, and was wondering if anyone had some pics of it.

Also, the catback pictured from their site is a live axle kit. Im guessing it would be oriented pretty much exactly like the Borla 14858 kit for the IRS?

It should be easy enough to find the muffler that would fit the kit and swap out and bolt in either a XS or XR-1 muffler?

I have the Steeda catback with catted x pipe, PHP filter kit
and am also interested in any info for fitting the Borla XS into the system. PM me if I can answer any questions or if you find
any info on XS fit.
thanks Mike

I have the steeda catback and it does sound good. I have not decided if like the way the tips were contoured to the rear bumper cover. They appear to be oriented wrong. I did call steeda and was informed this is the design. But it does sound wicked at WOT with the cattedX and catback.

blnpny,

Pics would be MUCH appreciated :)

The standard Borla tips like alright, but they are too short. They also are angled to match the bumper.

Keef,
How loud is it cruising with both the x and the catback? Any drone?

i have off-road bassini X, i love the way it sounds!
the tips are angled and they match the rear to a t.
i had the bassini on my 01 cobra and the tips were also angled.
i will send pics,be patient.

bln, how do you like the sound compared to the Bassani of your old Cobra?

I had LTs, off road H, and 2 chamber flows on my GT, sounded sweet as hell, but I dont think I wanna go that extreme on the Cobra... at least for now :)

The steeda cattedX and catback are not loud when driving around, but does have a somewhat aggressive growl. All stangs need a good sound. It has a little drone at 1800-2000rpm but not irritating. I would recommend it for the sound, but have not decided if I like the angled tips to match the angle of the rear bumper. Perhaps the Borla website has a picture. At WOT it screams.

the sound is very close.i love the steeda,the use a heavier gauge stainless steel than the bassani. without cats and wot it sounds like a f#cking nascar.(so i've been told) :burnout: :rolling:

steeda exhaust

:) I have the steeda system (catback and magnaflow catted x) and love it. It does sound like a nascar. Several people have told me the same thing. It sounds great but not the rumble of the 5.0. such is life I guess. I highly recommend it. No engine light problems either. My ford dealer even put it on.

later
