I would't put anything on as noted just a muffler because then you are chopping up the OEM. Remember you said it was a Lease.
You could e-mail manufacturers that youknow have systems for the H2 &H3 and want to make something for the H3A andhave prototypes in the works. The only thing with getting a prototype is you have to be close to the manufacturer so they can do mock ups and test.

FYI guys...I have emailed and called all of the top designers. Flowmaster "noting in the works yet, check back later"?? Magnaflow - "noting" not very nice on the phone

BillyBoat may be the first - they said that they have something in the works, prob a month!!!

I would check with Howell Automotive or Maryland Performance Centerand see if there interested in making a custom setup using your Alpha for a prototype, You might get it for free?

Another idea is to get under your Alpha and look at the configuration, Y-pipe, Down-Pipe, Cats, Hangers, measure your stock muffler and search for a replacement, say from Spintech, Jones, Aerotech, Magnaflow etc.. take some picsand find a H3 with I5 and compare the setups to see whats in common as far as hanger locations, and room/space. You might be able just peacemeal a system with maybe an X-pipe, Dual-in/out Muffler and havea custom shop bend you some tailpipes. JMO as far as flowmaster, great sound butmost stock systems are now stainless steel andtheirs are not.

Right now I am in Iraq, But I was stationed at Fort Detrick in Frederick MD with 4th Light Armored Reconnoissance Battalion, Bco from 94 to 2000 and had my VW/Sport Compactperiod, I had a 94 Golf Sport with 1.8 ltr Supercharged, then I got a 99 Passat with the 1.8Turbo and 5 spd Triptonic tranny and it was all upgraded it ran 12's in the 1/4 mile. I met allot of people and worked with some aftermarket vendors and stuffand that's how I got things for my Passat. So I was all over MD doing meets/shows. I have inlaws that live in Rockville. You might want to check there in the Rockville Area for GM performance shops.
