vtr backbox on 1.1?

my mate has a vtr exhaust that he's gona give me for free to let me away over mot.. as my car currently doesnt have one lol

will this fit straight onto my 1.1 centre section?

rep for help :)

not sure on the dimensions, but the bore i would imagine would be different, you might need reducers from the vtr box the 1.1 center, also might hit the bumper.
if you and your mate are handy with spanners, i would try it and see, you can allways remove it in 5mins.

meh i was trying to save myself 15 mins of life by putting it on to find out it doesnt fit lol

but i shall try :)

pretty much 100% certain it will fit....however as Ryan said, it will more than likely hit the bumper as there is no cut out in the rear bumper like on VTR/S, Furio and Westcoast.

The bore in the system is the same though. Worth him giving you and you getting under the car and having a quick play though

well i could always cut the bumper lol its only a bumper.. means i can broaden my search when buying a sports box too.. order one for a vtr.. as companys dont seem to make them for 1100's :(

^^ exactly :) aslong as you get a full system anyway, standard bore will be different and won't fit (if you buy magnex backbox, reducer will be needed) others should be ok though.

the dimensions should be the same and if it hits the bumper you can just adjust the rubbers to get it to sit properly anyway.

The best company to buy a backbox for a 1.1 would be sportex. They are very cheap and to be honest it's the nicest sounding backbox I have heard on a 1.1. It gives a sporty sound without sounding too loud or chavvy.

I haven't heard a 1.1 with a magnex. What kind of sound is it?

[Baz]

just like any other magnex tbh lol obviously just sit in the noise zone for longer as its slower
