Actually, a true dual setup is not compatible (at least the SF kit) since both exhaust manifolds come together before the turbo to provide energy for the turbo. Only way a true dual setup would work is if you ran a dual turbo setup or ran a single turbo off of one bank of cylinders.
IIRC, trubendz does offer a turbo sized catback kit (3" piping)....at least they do for the Cougar, not positive if it is available for the Contour.

I'm interested. As for the sizes, what's the SVT exhaust piping size? Because that's what I have, and I obviously don't want it smaller.

The stock size is 2 1/4. But you have to remember that is for both banks. For true duals you wouldn't need one as big, I'm guessing 2" true duals would work for the majority of the people.

anyways.. does anyone have any idea how this will sound at highway cruising speeds? will it be too loud and get annoying?
