Well the new Contour that I am getting has the Borla cat-back exhuast on it.
May I just say that this exhuast sounds phenominal.
I am really impressed with it.
Whats everyones exp. with this. The guy said he paid like $700 for the whole system.

It sounds good, but needs to be about a quarter inch larger diameter.
I have one, and thats the only thing I wish it had.

Price sounds about right, a little quiet but not a bad thing necessarily i don't care for waking the dead when i start my car up at night. I also have a hi flow cat and MSDS Headers to um accent the borla  makes it just a bit louder and fiestier

yea same here, all my friends love the sound after i got the headers and hi-flow cat put on..rumbles like a Borla..although I do have to agree with alex that a quarter inch more in piping woulda made me smile a bit more

On a non-SVT, this is a non-issue.
On the SVT, you'll still get better numbers than stock with the Borla cat-back, but you could probably get the same numbers for less money just by replacing your res and muffs, or better numbers for similar money from a different system (Tru-bendz?).
