I'm in need of a copy of the parts sheet that came with your dual Borla SVT exhaust. If someone would kindly make a full size scan and email me the scan I would greatly apperciate it!
I have a Cougar dual Borla exhuast and I'm attempting to modify and retrofit it onto my Contour. Being able to compare the two parts sheets side by side would be a great help.

You gotta fax #? PM me. I might be able to find my parts sheet. But I don't have a scanner.

Why go through all that work to fit it on the Contour with a 3L?

Absolutely! The Borla is not even an upgrade over the stock SVT exhaust with the resonator replaced.
On top of that the tip spacing of the cougar's exhaust is too close together for the SVT cutouts.
That is a large waste of money of both accounts.

It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

We'll, the current Bassani exhaust I have drones. I've have the Borla exhaust on my Cougar and it's sound is well balanced and has no drone at all.
So, from what I gather the Borla (performance wise) would be a big step backwards in performance? If the Borla exhaust is not the way to go any reccommendations on how to cure the drone?
FYI if it makes any diffrence I'm running the SHM long tube headers.

The diameter of the piping is the SAME as the STOCK SVT contour. 
Explain to me how you are getting a performance gain without changing the dia of the piping!?
