If you're after more burble, then this is a wise move. The backbox alone will give you a fair bit more than your Prodrive box. The unresonated centre section will give you a bit more on top of that.

Why not try the backbox on its own first and decide if you want the centre?

if its just burble your after why not try just the center.the prodrive box does sound the biz and gives off a lovely burble allready,its just not as loud as some aftermarket boxes.the straight center would give it a bit of volume.just my opinon but a friend of mine did this to his wrx and it really does sound super without being over the top.

I have an afterburner on my classic and its very very loud. it gives out such an adictive roar that you cant help youreself booting it. saying that it is rather anoying on moterway runs but you can get bungs for them. this is without a decat centre so i imagine it would sound even better. get one!!!!

Wise advice. Gets louder with the more parts you change (decat)

I'd change the centre section first and leave the Prodive backbox in place, the reasonated centre makes a big difference to noise, swapping this to a straight through section should give you enough volume without people thinking a chav classic is coming down the road....

the scooby world ninja back box its quite but when youre floor it sounds awsome . i live just down the road from scoobyworld and have heard them all! i think that the afterburner must be the loudest exhaust i have heard on a classic scoob sorry (chav) classic scoob.

You meen (chav) classic ? i think the ninja looks good on newages to . did you watch the video clip ? if you want an afterburner theres one on egay for the newage so you might save a few ££££'s there not the cheapest exhaust you can buy!
