not sure if any of you will have encountered this problem but il ask anyway..

well after MUCH trouble undoin the clamp to get my old bbackbox off my 1.0, im gonne replace it with a vtr one, i tried the clamp on the new connecting joint bit and it seems a bit loose, and looks a bit smaller than the joint on the standard box,(i havnt tried it actually on the car yet becuase i had to cut the bolt), will the clamp fit this new box or do i have to spend more money fixin it?

can i ask why?

you may find the 1.0 pipe is slightly small. But it shouldnt cost much to put right if things dont add up

why am i replacin it?? dunno really lol. the vtr backbox was goin cheap down my local french car dealer and i thought id have it to make my 1.0 look a bit diffrent.

anyways ive got it on now, and its a little bit loose.. i have a few ideas up my sleeve to make the clamp tighter tho so il give them a go. dont want the exhaust fallin off!!
