I replaced my standard (holes rusted through muffler) exhaust system with the Saab/Remus performance set-up last fall. Installation was quick and easy. Sound is definitely throatier without the raspy "fart can" sound.
Supposedly I gained 5HP with this upgrade, but I don't notice any change. I bought it through an internet auction from a Saab Dealer for $390, the Saab OE replacement muffler sells for $383 alone! The Remus rounded tip (only one now available?) is actually an oval shape nearly equal in profile to the 2000 standard muffler tip. I initially wanted the Viggen broad tip but am very happy with the shape of the rounded tip.
New down-pipes with a performance catalyst cost $700 plus, and even more for a racing cat. A new downpipe will yield an additional 20HP or so, but the same money will buy 64HP if applied towards a ECU upgrade or PPC programmer.
