Borla Exhaust Tips

AcGcSVT00 said:
So I want 3 1/2 or 4" pipes on my 5k mile SVT, but Im not gonna cut the pipe what so ever period.

I basically want the look, so I am thinkin of getting some Borla Tips that just attach on to the stock.

This is the borla tips:

Inlet Diameter Outlet Diameter
2 1/4" 3"

2 1/2 4"

Do you guys think that either of them will fit?

yeah ideally. but I think the idea is he doesn't want to modify a 5k mile exhaust, which I can agree with. So get a high milage exhaust. little better in some ways anyway ...
 
I wanna get some tips that clap on, my friend has them on his mustang up the street an you cant really tell

I say don't touch it...leave it stock as possible...isn't that the reason you bought a car with this low of mileage.:shrug:

Eh, it can have low miles and mods. Just save all the OEM parts for putting it back to stock. I love my Contour, don't get me wrong, but I'm not under any allusions as to it being a collector's car. Same with my SVT Cobra which isn't even anywhere near stock anymore. Maybe if you had a Ford GT or something...

I'm not saying you should just beat on a super low mileage CSVT or anything, definitely garage it and make it a weekend driver in good weather only, but that doesn't mean you can't put a catback on it or a nice shifter or a stereo or recontent a Mondeo trip computer into it or even something super simple like a Mystique rear dome. I'm all for keeping it super nice and keeping the miles low, but this isn't something that's going to go for $100,000 at Barrett Jackson in 30 years.
 
Thanks, Finally someone thats thinks like me.

If I ever did anything I will keep the original parts, but you are right it wont be worth much. Maybe 20k in another 10 years if I kept it like this, but Im not.

I think you should just mod it but don't beat on it. Make it sound good and drive better. I think that no one likes to leave there car stock. Especially the people here at the forum. It kind of sucks that you bought a car with such low mileage because now you can't do anything to it because its gonna degrade or loose value(Not upon my eyes). Just mod it, but take really good care of it since it's probably one of the newest Contours in the states.
