they would have to change the box, when you get one fitted they ask how loud you want it to be.

How is the noise level of a Powerflow system changed?
When I got my Free-Flow exhaust they do 1 box (= loud) and 2 box (= not so loud) systems. They said it was easy to make an exhaust quieter by adding a 2nd box later on but too much hassel to remove a box and make the system louder.
Was gonna cost me £40 for a 2nd box but I didn't bother, my car's not that loud with 1 box anyway.
Dunno if Powerflow make their exhausts in a similar way or not.

the just add small boxes to the system or add or remove the bafflers to vary noise levels

dunno why people would want it to be loud as powerflow exhausts have an aquired sound :O and they rust like anything

The exhaust is guaranteed for it's life - once it has rusted and is defective, it's life is over, hence no longer covered by warranty.
