I have an MY06 Sti PPP and after having the PPP fitted at 1k miles the backbox developed a rattle inside. No problem, took car back to dealer and had new PD backbox fitted under warranty.

Now a further month on and the rattle is back again in the new BB. Anyone else having this issue with the PD backbox?

Maybe there is a general problem with the 06 PD BB but I dont really want to keep having a new PD BB fitted every month.

 

are you pleased with the increase in performance?

 

Normally PD bits are of high quallity the 02-04 PPP B/Box were made by a very well know Exhaust Manufacture H&S IIRC

But at least it's a no quibble warranty

I've had my PPP backbox (MY06) on for a good few months now, the only thing i have noticed is it getting louder as the internals 'soot' up. Apart from that no rattle at all.

I though PD backboxes were done by Scorpion rather than H+S.... just going of hear say tho

Tony You probably right I have the memory of a goldfish

I had a Scorpion on my P1 and it to developed an anoying rattle. Took it back and swapped it no problem & no issues . never had another problem or rattlewith the second one. Seems that the baffles can work loose - I was given the reason that not enough spot welds were being used.....

I also believed that Scorpion build the back boxes for the boys at Banbury..

Cheers guys,

Guess it will have to go back again for another new one.

 

It beats polishing though

 

Scorpion do make the exhausts for Prodrive. This I know as I had a load of un-engraved ones off them a couple of years ago and sold them on here and one is on my car still
Cheers Col

 

are you happy with the increased performance though?

 

Not disagreeing with you mate, but I remember reading about a Forester the EVO mag. had as a long-termer and they fitted a Prodrive backbox to it which they said was made by Janspeed! I`ve had 3 Prodrive exhausts (WR Sport, P1 upgrade & PPP) and they`ve been all quality items.

 

Forget the prodrive if you not worried about warranty and buy the Full system that am selling..

 

i think we can take that as a no.

 

Bil,

Yes I am very happy with the increased perfomance. Yes you can go elsewhere and get more bhp for less money, blah, blah, blah

but

I am very happy with the whole package I have (except the BB of course) and most importantly, I have 3 year warranty!!

If your thinking of getting PPP, go to a dealer and test one.

 

I`ve done 2000 miles in mine, same modle, same BB and no such rattle yet (tempting fate)

 

hey i think we should all cheer up and be positive:l uxhello::l uxhello::l uxhello:


we ve got the best looking cars in the land!
