Im waiting on a bracket to come in so I can mount the performance muffler "under" the car instead of hanging off it.
When its done, it will be slung under the back with the exhaust roughly in the center of the body. I cant decide if I want a snazzy looking tip sticking out, or just keep the whole exhaust hidden and out of sight.

not to be mean but the only performance you get out of a muffler is noise... have you considered a cat back system?

Actualy, I get better gas milage from that muff than the stock, its the final solution to the 'eventual' exhaust system.

Yes.
Im not rich though. I got like 16 payments of $200 on this little bitch yet. (or something like that)

The Muff is the first bit.
Next is piping back to the cat. then its wait and save for the performance cat..... then more piping back to the header and wait and save for a perf header.

In the mean time, small stuff like cold air intake is a simple deal.

Fixing door speakers.

Installing my Amp and bass in the rear and other minor projects while the $$$ build up.

See, the electricity bill this month SUCKS! (its up by $100 because of 'rising fuel costs'. $100 for me alone!! Wholy crud!. How much profit does the electric company need to make?)

Pics no worky for me. Says access is forbidden. A muffler is a cheap alternative to a full exhaust. The piping is big enough in most instances. So the muffler and maybe a high flow cat is all you need to replace. And a header if you chose to do that at some point. I have 2.5" piping...is it overkill? Yeah, probably.

I like the Neon's "big butt". What I find hurts their looks is the kind of squashed front end. It needs a higher hoodline. That's normally compensated with a body kit which just lowers the bottom, but that isn't necessarly that practical for a daily driver in the winter in Ontario.
