Default Help me ID this backbox
It has 2.5 inch pipe work and a 4 inch rolled tailpipe.







There are no markings on the box itself. Just curious really

Any ideas?

Mine use to sound ok with straight throught pipe from front cat. Nice and punchy but not too loud.

Magnex are pretty good systems to be honest so should get a little rumble gain. Certainly would be a quality over quantity noise, I has a Magnex system on my old 205 GTi which sounded lovely.

At the moment I have a 4 inch straight exit backbox but I think this is much better looks wise with the rolled tip.

I will fit it and see for myself
