Default b/box

hi mate,
don't think you can fault the ninja from scoobyworld. excellent quality and looks. sounds great on tickover,wicked roar on full chat, yet not a nuisance in the cabin, which is nice.
depends how loud you want to go. very happy with mine

All of the above fine choices, how loud do you want to go though.

Always worth giving H&S a call. I have the "original Scooby design" and it's surberb, lovely burble without being too loud! They can make it as loud or quiet (within reason) as you want though.

Best wishes,

Hi,

I put a Scoobyworld Ninja BB on my 05MY the day I picked it up and I am well pleased with it,
as the others have said little noise inside the cabin but sounds and looks fantastic on the car !!

IMO it is well worth the money

It depends from the future mods you plan cause if you add decat down-mid pipes the cabin noise will be "unbearable"!
In this case I'd prefer a Prodrive backbox whitch is same restrictive as the above mentioned (at least there is no horsepower differences due to one or other backboxes) but much less noisy!

Any tips on other brands? Im not wanting to be a party pooper, but I dont like the look of a stainless steel dustbin following me around! Someone give me some clues on a descreet exhaust backbox with a nice scooby gurgle.

Anyone with ideas in the mids region might like to let me hear the results.

Hayward and Scott 4 inch inward rolled tailpipe based on the original Scoobysport design for me. Not much louder than stock under normal driving but enough to get a grin at full chat.
