Need your help finding performance exhaust
Hey guys i own a 2003 SAAB 9-3 Linear 2.0T 5 speed manual, I love the car and I am looking to do some modifications to it. Is there any site or place that makes a good cat back or turbo back exhaust system for this model car? I am having some trouble finding one. I want it to have some performance but id rather have a good, deep Euro-Tuned sound. So if you guys can give some input it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Genuine Saab is typically a good place to start for modern Saab performance parts (pretty much anything NG900 and later). They have several different exhaust options too...

I agree with Shazam, you can't go wrong with Genuine SAAB. I bought my SAAB Sport exhaust from them, no regrets.

Thank you both for your responses, i was looking through their stuff and for pretty much all their exhaust systems for my year it was for the 9-3 SS. Does that matter? can I put a 9-3 SS sport exhaust on my car? or is it a completely different set up? Here is one that i found tell me what you think cause it says in the descrition that it fits.

No I don't have a SportCombi it's a sedan, thanks for the help the SS thing was confusing me so much i knew chevy had a SS and GM took over saab in the 80's but i didn't know that they applied the SS to Saab models. Another quick question besides my exhaust i was thinking of putting on some nice rims possibley Raderwerks with their mid to deep dish rims that they have for sale what do you guys think? for example:

Those rims look nice, but you'll need to run with wobble bolts or with adapters; I'm not seeing a 5x110.
I think this is the cut-out you want...
