I can speak to that as I just had mine installed yesterday. There is a very quiet rumble at idle, with a muted but awesome tone on acceleration. There's a tad more noise in the cockpit, but very little increase overall. I think it sounds GREAT! P.S. I don't like LOUD! Last edited by gearhead; 06/07/05 06:58 PM.

Cost will vary from $40 to $400 depending on condition & generosity of the CEGer in question. I paid $75 for my first one, and $75 for the one on my car now. Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

The best mod for the SVT exhaust is replacing the resonator with a straight through magnaflow component. It's the poor man's mod, but sounds really good. I, personally bought the svt exhaust from a guy who already replaced the stock resonator with a straight pipe. At first, I was amazed, but soon the drone and rasp got to me. In my opinion it's too loud and annoying. I was thoroughly impressed when I put the magnaflow resonator in place. It took about a week to get it used to, but thereafter has sounded sweet. Just some things to keep in mind. The svt exhaust is very nice, but is a bit too quiet with the stock resonator, in my opinion. 99 Black Contour SE Sport
