I went and put it on my '96 900SET and have to admit, it sounds fantastic!! Makes you want to drive around with the radio off and the windows down all the time. It's a stainless steel system (catalytic converter back) and has a lifetime warr. from SAAB. When I put it on, the car was only 5 mo. old and I was already getting small rusted parts out of the standard system. The horsepower increase is less perceptable, 185 vs. 192 hp., sure seems to go faster though. Chrome tip looks great too. I'm definitely pleased with the system. My dealer even gave me a discount on the system of 10% (hey, $40 is $40!!). With it being made of stainless, should last quite a while, in my mind, at least two mild steel system changes, so it's worth the cost. And I can't stress how great it sounds. Not too loud, mostly noticable to the driver rather than people on the street. Dosn't sound like one of those tricked out Accords or some other kiddie car. Much more adult than that. I doubt that you would be disappointed if you are out to set your car apart but not advertise it to the entire neighborhood.
