Just got a quote for a backbox from MIJ performance in Walsall (custom exhausts)

It's £154.99 just for the backbox, and thats with the £25 off for the fuel they pay

Seem a bit steep?

3.5" outwardly rolled BTW

i bought a 3.5" inward rolled, from dave A, £155 delivery, custom made.

It sounds really performancey, deep and clean, not raspy.

Cant fault it, good quality (welds etc - dads a quality engineer) sounds lovely and looks the part, much prefer the smaller cyclindrical box like mine as aposed to the standard ones (which are massive!)

When you order you can be as picky as me to by asking for burn cleaning, where the burns which occurr when welding is polished off.

I also asked for clean/tidy welds, bit of a perfectionist

As im sure you know from your previous cars, the old exhaust is a biatch to get off, my old one was fairly new and it was a pig. I resulted in heating the pipe up and it slid of pretty easy.
