Surely anything other than the Prodrive item may invalidate your warranty?

Hi Grasshopper,

I also have MY03 .. Dealer fitted Prodrive for me " to start with " and , believe me , it REALLY does sound good !!
OK , it may not be BIG exhaust sound ( like a firestorm etc )but it does make a hell of difference .
You're welcome to hear mine to compare .

Hope this helps .

I fitted the firestorm after having the prodrive back box.

NO COMPARISON.

Thumbs up

Hi M8,

I just had a back-box fitted to my '03 WRX. It was fitted/built by my mates @ C&C Custom Stainless Exhausts in Hillington who build stainless, top quality sytems and boxes for your car. The exhausts are greatly priced, fitted for you and the quality is second to none. They will build exactly what you want, lifetime gaurantee and are nice guys too.


Try this link for details, photos etc.

If phoning, mention to Cameron or Campbell you got the link from Brian from the Les Mis band.

You cannot buy better.

All the best.
