Hey Red Aero Girl,
I have a 97 9k Aero with a manual trans. K&N air filter and stage II SQR. Last summer I bought a 2.5" stainless cat-back exaust from Swedish Dynamics. Around $650.00. I think they still have them in stock. Beautiful workmanship (made in Germany) excellent fit, and only 4 bolts to install. Fit's almost perfect, is not loud, but a sporty sound. Could feel the difference over stock in "seat of pants" dyno. Removed the rear section this spring before putting car back on the road to have local shop extend tailpipe 2.5" just in front of the exaust outlet at the rear facia. I think these were made to fit CSE's also and to get the tip out the facia on an Aero, they need to be a little longer than delivered. Only had to remove 2 bolts and get a new doughnut gasket. I can't say enough good about the fit and finish of this system, plus the ease of installation,(about 10 minutes after you get the old one off.) SD says it will flow at least 450 HP) I just got a 3" stainless downpipe this week from Jak to finish the job.
I would also concurr with those that say to do the air filter when you can. They are available from Genuine Saab for around $90.00 and are also a simple installation for some more "seat of pants" power and gas milage.
