You're the first post I've read to recommend going beyond the simple straight pipe. 98 Contour SE Sport ATX (T-Red) Bonafied Rookie Pioneer DEH-3100 :: K&N Filter :: CEG Foglight rewire Planned Mods: Test TH Fix in ATX :: Door Lights :: Side Markers Farther Future Mods: KKM Intake :: SVT Exhaust :: SVT Rear Bumper :: BAT Euro Kit

I suggest a brand-name like Walker or Vibrant. Mine is a house brand, and after a year and a half, it's starting to wear out. The resonator delete, glasspack addition makes the SVT exhaust a little bit louder, gurglier, and richer but without the obnoxiousness of a straight pipe; IMO, perfect. Oh and I wouldn't be the first recommending a glasspack over a straight pipe. I know Sujeet (dunno his SN... guy with the boxster) is an 'adamant' supporter of the glasspack, heh. -Louis 1998 Black E0 #3826, lightly modded
