I was looking to buy the afterburner myself dpb, but after speaking to ian at h&s i can see that my money is much better spent on this baby. It looks excellent in the pics and i just love the angled exit look, very jap

Performance is increased by having a straight pipe on the back box instead of the normal S bend and at 104db load it's gonna sound the absolute bollox mate

Get your name down now mate

dpb, it's been a bit of a struggle to get five and as Andy says it could take a long time to get 10.

Put it this way, i was budgeting on paying £225 for this BB, what JT told me it cost him. When you bear in mind how much the Afterburner you were going to buy costs.... c'man!

Seriously, Paul (scooby23) hasn't changed his mind for no reason.....

Justin, you'll love the 4.5" pipe mate, 3.5" is just too square these days and you'd soon get bored of 3.5 inches and want more.

Great. Now we just need confirmation that Justin's in, and we can start getting payment details etc sorted out. We can sort out angled/straight once we have 5 definites, so don't worry dbp, might change my mind yet, I'm not sure.

Come on jmc, you know you want one!!!

Thanks for the information anyway, when you next e-mail Ian could you possibly ask him how much he could do it for? (4in straight)

Thanks mate

Hi
The backbox is no lower to the ground than my prodrive it replaced, the angle is just the boxes exit angle.
Checkout the pics on page 1 of my car with it on.

I'll give you Ian's number Peter, probably best if you talk to him direct, then you can explain exactly what you need.

He might give you a favourable price if you mentioned that you tried to get into this group buy (tell him I e-mailed him to ask about your car, he should remember).

Hope he can sort you something out.

His number is 01268 727256

Cheers,

Andy.

The exhaust is also available for the new age impreza not just the classic.

You can have a straight exit but there are 2 differences, one is that it's an extra £20, and 2, it has the S bend pipe which loses the straight pipe which gives you the extra pony's.

Price for BB if we have 5 people will be £182.13 (not sure on postage yet) waiting for Ian to get back to me for the price if we get 10 names.

Payment for BB will be made direct To Ian at H&S Via card payment.

If anyone is interested and has any questions give me a pm

Hope this helps, lets try and get 10 people for that better discount

Sorry about this guys but I am pulling out,
The 4 1/2" tail pipe is a bit extreme for me.
I am very sorry for mucking you around, especialy to Carl and Andy, I know you guys have put a lot into this.
I hope you can get more people for the GB.
If you can't, ask Ian if he would include me in the GB if I bought my own system from them., to keep the numbers up as I have been considering an H&S system for some time now

Thanks for letting us know Justin.

The 4 1/2" would have been ok for you, you know

Cheers anyway,

Andy.

P.S. Scooby23 has done the most work for this GB. Just thought I'd let you know

Talking

Ok Ok I am in,

was unsure about the tail pipe but just seen some pics of the Vortex and Ninja on scoobyworld, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
already talked with Ian at H&S today regarding the noise as I drive an estate.
Says he can fit a silencer for a bit extra.
Get the deal done before I back outonder2:

Paul (Scooby23) phoned Ian and asked him what the noise level would be with a full decat.

This backbox is from Hayward and Scott, not Scoobyworld, think you've got your wires a bit crossed up mate. You're thinking of the Ninja or the Afterburner I think. This is less money for as good a backbox so I've been told.

Cheers,

Andy.

There's a pic here of what we're getting.

Lovely bit of kit I think you'll agree:

mate, it's only reaching 104db with a full decat system, So the hardcore people like myself with ful decats will be wearing ear plugs very soon but the others will be able to sit back, windows down, and just listen all day long to that flat four rumble

When I changed my centre pipe, I expected big noise, but it wasn't the case, sounded almost the same.

Go full decat, it's the only way.

Once I get my knocklink off the GB, the standard downpipe's days are are numbered

Heh heh

Ok boys, now we have the 5 required names, can you all PM me with your user names and your real names??

Don't want no addresses or card details, it's just to let Ian know who's part of the GB so you can all get your discount

Carl, I take it your username is the same as your real name If I don't hear from you by tomorrow (I know you're offshore at the mo), you'll be on the list at that.

ASAP boys, I need this backbox

Once Scooby23 gets the payment details and the price inc postage, he'll let us know.

Thanks,

Andy.

Am I correct in assuming that we all have classic shape cars and we all want angled exits??

If not, PM me ASAP, cos I'm going to send the list to Ian first thing in the morning (I'll check back here first), with names, type of car and required exit.

Cheers,

Andy.

Guys, i am 95% sure i'll get a chance to call tomorrow. If all else fails there's little reason why i shouldn't be able to call in my lunch hour. Wonder how long it'll take Ian to get used to the satellite delay....

Justin, nice move mate. I just remembered who Lee Hay is by the way, he thumped me at Turra' Marquee about 5 years back.

Carl, MY98 classic, angled exit, full H&S de-cat, soon to be alot noisier!!

Good news there Carl.

Can't wait to get the big pipe on the motor.

I'll have to check every morning in case there are small street children sleeping inside of it!!
