Mmmm there's a very cheap and tempting classic prodrive backbox on ebay, and my calculations suggest it will be much quiter than my stupid loud cobra 4.5" box but still sound good. I have welding gear and the skills to do some modding to get it to fit, obviously it's from a turbo and putting on a sport so there's one problem, and the only other is the 3rd hanger?
Anyone got anything to offer?

 

(Advice wise unless anyone has a spare prodrive backbox up for grabs? )

 

anythings possible if you use and angle grinder and a welder

 

Aha this is true. Am I right in thinking I'll have to alter the flange angle and change one hanger?

 

I'm not sure to be honest, I would say the main issue would be pipe diameter difference.
And I don't even know if the exhausts follow the same route under car between turbo/sport
Probably have to take a punt on it unless someone's done it,cant see it being a long way off though

 

I've done some looking on other forums and I know people have at least fitted classic to newage turbos, and as far as I'm aware the turbo/sport new age exhausts at least route the same way

 

And his listing says pipe diameter is 2.5 so same as my current cat back

 

Took a gamble, if it's too different to convert I can always flog it ey

I think they do and there was a guide on the old Impreza sport forum before closed

 

It will fit ( with the help of a grinder and welder ) - you will prob need to turn and re-weld the flanges as they will foul on the diff carrier when they are in the normal position.

Yeah that's what I've heard, my boss is a dab hand at welding exhausts so he's doing it for me for beer tokens
