Default Backbox opinions please.

I have a MY96 wagon with full decat, H&S downpipe and unknown type of decat centre and st/st backbox ( possibly same as d/p ).

Thing is, I don't get a particularly deep rumble at idle although on full chat many fellow scoob owners ( Darlaston crew ) have said how loud and good she sounds, imagine the sound of tearing steel and you'll get the idea.

I am thinking of changing the backbox to a Firestorm or similar and would like some views on the best way to go.

All views welcomed.

Cheers.

Skoosh.
