to fit a classic? In terms of noise, appearance, powergain. Money no object.

Not cheap, but not overly expensive either and you're paying for quality!

DEPENDS WHERE YOU LIVE, I GOT MiNE FROM JP EXHAUSTS IN MACCLESFIELD AFTER UM-ING AND R-ING OVER A MAGNEX SYSTEM, THEY BUILD THEM TO ORDER AND ARE VERY ENTHUISIATIC TOWARDS EXHAUSTS, AND 4 OF MY FRIENDS HAVE USED THEM.

anyone seen the adverts from revolution-eu.com
in mags 39bhp gain using their system.

anyone has it, to back their claim?

Scoobymania make the best quality full system IMHO as I had it for about 3yrs andf it still looked brand new

For a backbox though i'd have to agree with Hayward & Scott. If you can get one from them you'll pay about £250 and if like me you have a different sized system they'll make you a custom one with 3" pipework which is very LOUD!!! On full throttle my car sounds like a spitfire

If you can't get one from H&S (if you're too far from Essex), a lot of companies sell them under the "Afterburner" label for around £270 - £290 for the backbox. They are all still made by Hayward & Scott but with a higher mark-up on them.

They also do a version with a larger tailpipe 4 or possibly 4.5" IIRC, if that's your sort of thing

I like my Magnex BB, not too loud but loud enough for me
So many though do say the H & S is the biz, gotta mean sumthing

everyone knows that the Nur Spec R is the best

GC8

You're confused; the Nur Spec R is the loudest!

SCD Simon

I'll second that

dpb

hand-made and specified to your requirements in good materials is the way to go

ukdave

bought centre and downpipe from hayward and scott themselves but had to buy afterburner bk box from scoobyworld which made it not so cheap.tho wasnt any others that were as good at that money in my opinion only other choice would have been the nur spec

I had a Hayward and Scott (old Scoobysport) on my Bugeye. It sounded great but the fit was a little off, needing the middle hanger bending to stop it knocking on the rear drive shaft. The only part of it that was polished was the tailpipe and there was weld splatter all over the silencer which I ground off.

I now have a "new" Scoobysport box which I bought second hand off here on my Type R. It is a lovely piece of kit to look at and fits superbly.

They both sound excellent though but my recomendation is to buy one second hand for a good bit cheaper than you'd pay new. They are built to last and so you shouldn't have any problems with one.

Blitz Nur Spec R is not the loudest

Jonty

Can't argue with that. Few years back I had them put together a system for my MR2 Turbo, which although not cheap the craftsmanship was superb. When I decided to replace the standard back box on my Impreza there was only one company to ask. I've since decided to opt for one of their de-cat centre sections too.

Great products and great service to match. Don't worry if you don't live near Essex -- they know how to use couriers.

I'm a Magnex man myself. Dont own one, but they sure are the sweetest sounding back boxes I have ever heard (tho I have never heard an H&S b4)

MAFFA

The exit on my exhaust from H&S is 4.5" and believe me the Nur Spec is NOT the loudest!! I've driven along side a mate who had a Nur Spec and he said he couldn't hear his for the noise of mine I challenge anyone to a volume contest

H&S for me, the 4 1/2 inch angled exit on my classic sounds awsome.

Fitted a Scoobyworld Ninja today and i am well chuffed.

Extra roar at tickover, looks mean but not too noisey when out and about.

scoobyDAZZA

agree with MAFFA

i changed my blitz nur spec r to a H+S centre and H+S 4.5" back box
and it was louder , , , only problem for me was it was way too 'raspy'
could be to do with my aftermarket headers but i changed the centre to a resonated 1 and it took all the 'harshness' away . . .

but if i had my time again then it would be the nur spec r
and believe me,i've tried a few,lol.
