was thinking it was time to go & get a scooby sport back box but whilst wandering around Milton Keynes at the week end I happened across a supplier of Scorpion systems.
Quote for a complete system (using oe cat on car) some 385 pounds.
Even more interesting was that the salesman said that Prodrive use this system on all their cars, the only difference being that the have them un-marked.
Can anyone confirm the above and has any one had any experiances as I know most love the scooby box, but 385 seems very attractive.

Simo,

I assume you enquired somewhere near to a KFC ???

If you do decide to go the Scorpion route, shop around - it is available within a 25 mile radius for £100 less.....

I have just had a Remus backbox installed and I am impressed although this choice was based on the (lack of) noise increase principally. Seems to be a good improvement on the OE box though.

See you at the MK meet ?

Thanks

Gavin

thanks Gavin,

I'll have a look & listen at the back box on Sunday.

Still wondering if the scorpion unit is one & the same as the oe prodrive cars have.

Hi there,

I believe the same question was asked about Prodrive exhaust back in the early days.

I cant remember for sure what the answer was...chances are JohnS or PeteC might know.... But I think the outcome was that we agreed they were the same exhuast (albeit unbadged)

It may be the same make, but it's not the same system. I've got a Scorpion, and no Prodrive I've heard sounds like mine. Besides, the Scorpions a 4" pipe, isn't Prodrive's 3"?
I'm at TRAX/MK meet Sunday anyway.
Cheers.

Stef.
