Just been and had a new backbox fitted today, It had completely sheared just before the middle section and back box join. So they cut the pipe back to wear it was ok and did stainless from there.
Very Happy. Think it looks good.

Very nice Richard! :y :y
Funny how the colour of your car, and others like it, changes from one to another in different photographs / angles of light! :D ;)
Mine is always just deep green as my previous one was just black! ;D :)

Hehe, yeah. Only taken on my phone so thats probably why! ;)

Very Nice 8-)
How much did it cost if you don' t mind me asking.
-
No I don't mind, £200. It was supposed to be more due to the extra work involved but I was cheeky and he gave in to £200. TBH I still think thats alot for a back box but the other alternative was a full middle section and backbox. Least this comes with a lifetime warranty.

Powerflow?

Powerflow?
Actually No. My local powerflow dealer was messing me about so I tried another place from a recomendation. They use Longlife

So I am curious as to what it actually sounds like, because on mine I upgraded to the Steinmetz back box and two flowtech straight through mufflers in place of the original ones under the rear seat, and the result was stunning, it sounds great outside but still on the quiet side inside!....
My friends keep reminding me that it sounds like a BMW E36 M3.... no idea why....
I assume that the sound is the way it is due to the slighltly longer passenger pipe and the increased length causes for some mismatch between the pulses from the firing order... so it does something like this... 1,2 ...pause... 3,4. pause... 5,6.... and for whatever reason its just cool... !

Well because they make their own silencers you can customize the noise levels from them, I only asked for a mild/sport sound so its not really noisy at all, It has a slight tone to it and I think that will get better as it carbons up a bit. But I am happy with it being like that as it has a Pipercross induction kit on so together sound pretty sweet.
