No way would I ever consider or recommend them for a higher displacement engine.

I agree, from short pipes is not a deep sound

1500+ is already expensive for me
I wanted no more than 1200

Not suitable for power to the motor
PS I was told, or are they wrong?

any 2-1 pipe is gonna be your best exhaust for power, straight pipes kill you low end. honestly most companys make really good pipes. imo the best are vance and hines for power, their 2-1 is race proven and all their about is hp and drag racing, so they know their stuff. just make sure you get a good free flow intake and a power commander or some fuel managment system and get it dyno'ed. cant go wrong with that...

If you're looking for a deep, beautiful sound, in my opinion I'd stay away from the bassani. I had one and while it was a great quality exhaust, for me the tone was always a bit too tinny and the annoying decel noise is like someone dumped a bag of marbles in the muffler. Never fell in love with the sound of it. Just my 2 pennies.

RedThunder would be another option I'd look into, believe it is in your price range...

Some folks must never have heard the V&H short shots on a 120R with a 62mm intake.
