Does anyone have this exhaust on thier contour? I just saw it tonight, and for 350 for the stainless one, even if I didn't use the muffler that it came with it would still be cheaper than buying the bends and whatnot to build a comparable system.

Are there any cougar owners out there with this exhaust installed?

basically, this exhaust sucks. I remember someone (Dan Beggs? Dan Nixon? its been a while...) trying it and he lost power...

A few of the Cougar owners have this exhaust. One of them (known as kilkenny) has been running 15.1@91 consistently with it along with a KKM. Another just ran a 15.7@90 with "the worst launch ever". I'm not recommending the exhaust, but it may not be as bad performance-wise as was originally thought.

Thanks for the reply's, for those who thinks it sucks, where is the problem? Are the bends bad or is the problem in the muffler or flanges?

Anyone have any ideas?
