Swap - Aftermarket backbox

Smokey · 13-03-12, 10:51 AM

Don't expect any quick responses to this but here's my proposition.

After the first track meet, the car did fit in well and will look even more the part with its livery.....but, it was like watching an electric car drive by compared to the noise of the others!

So if there is anyone looking to either revert back to a standard backbox for whatever reason or selling a car with aftermarket backbox and are happy to swap with a standard box for a few quid extra in exchange, please let me know.

I don't want to be spending a fortune which is why I'm not just buying a new one!

It is a mk1 saloon 180.

Thanks.

And I thought it was quiet because you were to easy on the throttle

Cut the rear box off and pipe it through and de-cat it (might not pass the noise test though

)

Anyone know how loud it would be without the back box section, as I have a spare standard backbox I could use....?

Oh and would it release a wee pony or two?

Also, Stephen, may take you up on that if the price is right (free session?
