I’m looking to get something else soon anyway, so I dont want to get anything too hardcore that would 1)be a waste of money since I plan on selling sooner than later, or 2)reduce appeal to the average resale customer. f the saab sport exhaust. get the 3" turbo back they have listed. its not SS but if you’re selling it in the next handful of years (ie next summer) it wont be an issue. plus its really inexpensive. then get a stage 3 flash. i totally dont know anyone else on this forum that has that planned for a 9-3. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/this-is-why-staying-stock-doesnt-work/19978)._
