Any suggestions for the replacement of the standard backbox on my 98 turbo to stop it wheezing.

Hi

It depends on what you want really, the Magnex back box is very good value and offers ultra high quality and a nice deep bass tone.

A Blitz or HKS exhaust will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end but the build quality is second to none at a price of course!

Please click on my banner, and if you'd like any prices, having seen the exhausts on our site, please let me know.

Hi ... Hibutts,

I've heard that Remus BB's are almost quieter than the original on your car ... more restrictive (less free flowing) apparently than Jamie's offerings though ...
Depends what you want

1, low volume small performance benefit

or

2, higher volume, but nicer tone and slightly better performance benefit ...

Hope that helps!

Steve

You are right Steve, btw how are you?

The Remus are very quiet but the performance increase is smaller, however we supply these too so please let me know if you need any more info.
