back box delete

[marko pollo]

Hi All

My back box decided to snap right at the box so i couldnt get a weld on it!!!

I did the only thing that a could ( with no spare cash!!) and deleted the box and welded in a straght threw, it sound amazing!!!! and it passed the mot with it on.

Take a look and let me no wat you think??

I have to say that i am not too keen on that, sorry buddy but being honest it sounds like you have a hole in your exhaust and kind of reminds me of when my old escort dropped it's exhaust at the manifold. I like loud exhausts but I think they need to have some resistance of a back box to make the sound more deeper and purposeful if that makes sense.

Of course I would say mine is just right , as I have decat and piper single rear box system. On tickover sounds purposeful and on driving slow is awesome and then on full chat (think I just drippled)appreciate you car though and you like it that's cool. Not for me buddy.cheers for sound file
