Question


Thinking about going for the Prodrive backbox on my99 as have been told by dealer that it wont invalidate my warranty.

Its a bit steep at 300 +vat+fitting just for the backbox - what worries me is the whoosing mentioned in previous threads - does anyone have an mp3 / au of what it sounds like on an as yet unmodded car ?

Or would I be better saying Cluck the warranty as they dont go wrong anyway and just go for a magnex BB + Decat for the sam e price ?

Need to let them know today as I was having done with the 30K service (ouch).

Thanks

T.

I called IM about this and was told that if I changed my BB and the increased performance
could be proven to have caused a problem ( ? ) It would invalidate the warranty - Prodrive or otherwise !?

Paul Corrigan will have a Prodrive box and Magnex de-cat centre for sale on Friday 28th
I reckon he'd take £250
