they are quite loud, especially if you have a full de-cat:eek:
fitting is simple really, 15minute job:thumb:

Well got the standard exhaust on at the moment , so I thought I would have a little play can always take it off and sell if it's not to my liking.

it should sound sweet with the standard centre and downpipe (im guessing you dont want it too loud), but it will look 100% better:cool:

If you fit a deresonated centre section that will make the exhaust really loud, a backbox on it's own shouldn't be too bad. :)

Right the back box is on , looks good and sound good. Pain to get the old bolts off. I found it easier to take the exhaust off from the cat back in the end. I hack sawed the bolts off at the rear box as they were rusted to hell. I managed to snap one of the bolts at the cat end. Any way the exhaust is on but I have a very slight blow from the join at the cat. I'm waiting for the new bolts to arrive and a tube of fire gum but in the mean time I found a bolt to do a temp job for now. Will I be ok driving it with a very slight blow you can only feel it under slight revs , I cant hear the blow. The reason I ask is I know some turbo' don't like it.
