I am running a 10" resonator and a high-flow magnaflow cat. No muffler. The turbo also helps as a noise-reducer. My car isn't raspy and isn't that loud.

My 93 with turbo has a different sound... nothing like I've heard on a 4 cyl before. It isn't loud, but the tone is very low and you can tell it's coming a long way away. I keep wanting to call it a rumble, but ln2 and exhaust rumble are two terms that just don't belong together.

I'm using a high flow cat and Dynomax muffler w/ 2.25" (IIRC) pipes.

can you get a video of your car? i would like to hear the saab setup since im doing it as well..

remember to account for wind and camera's for those who have heard my car at the dyno place, know its not raspy. sounds 100% stock at idle and cruising, but when i get on it. it makes some noise.

My car is actually pretty loud, but I love the sound. It sounds different when it warms up. I will post some new videos in spring after the new build!
