Which back box?
Hi All,
I'm sure this question has been asked before but I've search the forums and can't find anything useful.
I currently have 2 blobs, a WRX (290bhp) as my daily and an STi (400+bhp) as a weekender. I'm looking for advice on which back box to use on the latter.
Both cars have a Hayward & Scott 3" de-cat system with the WRX using a 3" new age with larger silencer and the STi using a 4.5" Jap style angled back box. The WRX sounds awesome and the STi looks great but is WAY too load. I guess I could add in an additional mid silencer, although would prefer not to.
Soooo, on to the question; what recommendations do people have for something that has the Jap look but won't deafen my neighbors?

I think the only way you'll have the freedom of.choice over look, and sound is to go custom.

+1 for the hks items and you don’t have to chop your rear bumper up neither

Thanks for the advice! I'll take a look at the HKS system although I think that uses a mid pipe silencer so would need to replace the system.
Custom may be a good option! :-)

Here a quick link to my custom 3" turbo back exhaust. Straight pipe non resonated. 4" jap style tailpipe.
Car was running and upto temp.

exhaust
Full decat. 3" turbo back to a 4" jap style tailpipe. Was mapped immediately after by Andy Forrest. Also de resonated with a cosworth hi flow induction kit. Sounds superb on boost. Slight misfire due to turbosmart dump valve, which is always set to full recirc but still a slight vent. This was also mapped in.
