I just wanted to get everyone's opinions on what catback exhaust is the best for the Contour. Currently I have the stock exhaust with the resonater replaced with a glasspack, I love it but it's time for a change...
I'm 99% sure that I am going to be getting the Borla, any thoughts on this system? I searched and didn't come up with much...
Thanks!

Brullen. Mine is on its way to my house as we speak. Go to the GB section for the Brullen Cat-Back System and take a look at the pics and listen to the sound clips! You'll be in love. I can't wait until mine gets here!!

How much are you getting the Borla for? I saw it SHOT up in to ridiculouse pricing,
Borla = 2.25 piping $650-700 or something like that now. Brullen = 2.5 piping (better) customization AND group buy I think is $525 or something like that..

The price I'm getting it for can't be beat, I know that for sure. LOL.
Is the Borla system a good one? Does it sound ok, any raspiness? If it's raspy I will be ripping it off right away lol.

I've got the borla. very high quality unit. I actually wish it was a bit louder. try and optimize your ypipe or get a shoshop ypipe at the same time.

Brullen. I'm hosting the GB on the Brullen and the price is $510. I'm not trying to sell you or anything, but the Brullen is rated higher than the Borla on HP. It is customizable for free(tips size and style, quiet or loud systems). ITs all SS and Mandrel bent with the highest quality materials. The GB ends March 31. Thanks

It all depends what "special price" he's getting the Borla for. The Brullen and Bassani have proven to gain a little more HP than the Borla.
