I want to buy a Jap style back box to replace my Prodrive one, does anybody know if there is any difference between the Vortex sold by Scoobyworld and the Haywood & scott version both made by H&S? I'm talking about power and noise. Cheers, Mick.

Virtually no gains to be had from chaging a backbox power wise.

The Afterburner has a spiraled baffle inside the backbox which is designed to help the gas flow extraction, I've got one along with the straight though centre and it sounds

I had the tsl firestorm fitted then had it on the rolling road and it gave me an extra 20 bhp without anything else.

If u look on the Hayward and scott website they list the extra Bhp from fitting one of there own backboxes as 2-3Bhp so i fail to see how a TSL Firestorm (or any backbox for that matter) can give u a extra 20 Bhp

Just telling you mate.
Not done any mods,put the back box on,went to the rolling road(noble motorsport)with sheffield scoobys the standard bhp is 280 then it came in at 297 on the rr,the other lads could hardley believe it either!!

Back to topic. Where can I get a cheap-ish new Vortex or Ninja 2 backbox from? Ebay dont seem to have them, unless someone can find me a link or some "words" to type in the search box? Tried everything but nothing is for sale.

Anything cheaper than the £250 on Scoobyworld would be great.

Thanks guys

keep ya eyes peeled on the for sale forums. i just picked up a b/box and centre section for less than that (£250 scoobynet price that is,) well impressed with it and it isnt as loud as what i thought it might be! Just the right noise level in my opinion.

seek and ye shall find...LOL
