Bassani "Racing" series cat back


Does anyone have the Bassani Racing series cat back (or aft-cat)? Specifically the 5092R4 / BX5092R4 model for the 87-93?

The Bassani web site does not have a photo of those specific part numbers but the catalog notes the pipes do not go over the axle. I can't really tell where their system runs but after looking under my Mustangs, I can see a clear path of how a 2.5 inch pipe could fit under the axle and up and over the sway bar and maybe even under the sway bar as well (but would be very close to the ground and close to the differential).
I don't want to buy it without hearing from others because I have aftermarket control arms and my sway bar is moved slightly from stock.
I did find a place that has the full SS (5092R4) "racing" aft cat system for $309 shipped which is a good deal but not if it will not fit.

Bassani sells other systems that are quieter then the racing series and route over the axle but for the price I am not interested and would probably be happy with another Flowmaster system for $240 or the SS Magnaflow for $360.

Did you ever consider an SLP exhaust IMO it sounds good their site has sound clips.

No I did not consider SLP but I will check out their site and prices for next time
I waited a while and got no replies about the Bassani so I went with the Magnaflow 2.5 inch 93338 h-pipe w/cats and the Flowmaster 2.5 aluminized cat-back. Total price for both was $515 shipped. I was going to consider an X-pipe w/cats and a SS cat back from others but I still need a drive shaft, a few odd gaskets and a test and tune which may result in some more needed parts and cost and spring is almost here!

My previous h-pipe w/cats blew out and clogged my Flowmaster mufflers. They were both kind of old anyway so I am basically replacing what broke with a better h-pipe and the same cat back system.
