OK, after reading all the posts I decided to try the mod out and figured the worst I would be out is a stock muffler that I would have to repair. On the 98's they appear to have a harder curve then the one at the front end of this thread. Realized that I was not going to get a starter bit in make a hole. Used a large regular screw driver and with one hard tap of a rubber mallet I was able to make the starter hole. I ended up going with a 1" bit in the end.

One word...WOW! My 0-60 time on the car is shorter by about a second...the sound is wonderful starting a about 2800 I get this beautiful feedback that sounds like a GT. Top down it is sweet, top up not one bit of an issue. If you are worried, don't be...this is both a cost saving mod and very easy to do.
