i bought a standard backbox as they sit very high, and the backbox was in the shed from when i was going to put it on my rs turbo...

brand new backbox cost me £20, and the place charged me £10 for chopping both tailpipes off, welding the 3" one on, and for two small exhaust rubbers..

so, now it sits realy high, looks smart and only cost me £30

subtle and basey...exactly how i wanted it to be..

ive got a remus centre section, so i could get rid of the huge middle silencer for when i lower it more..

so if i had a aftermarket backbox it would have been silly loud, which i didnt want, so now ive got the clearance, nice subtle sound and looks nice..
