I need a BTB in my life.

[Barry123]

but I don't want to decat my car...

so is it possible just to get the backbox???

cheerssss

[Karl]

What you can do mate is the same as mine.

Buy a full BTB exhaust.

then get a standard cat with one end re-welded to the right diameter.

this is what I have for MOT and run decatted normally.

[Barry123]

I'm being a spacker again... it is catted

edit:

so does the system have a cat with it or not man?

[Liam_]

Can you not just use the BTB centre section and backbox?

[VTEC-Saxo]

is it the MK2 manifolds that have the cat built in ?, if so could you not use a mk2 manifold with the cat in and still use the BTB exhaust>

on a vtr
he has a vts

so erm GTFO :P

[craig180]

You want it for the looks or for performance?

[Karl]

Ads, its a decat system.

if you want a cat to fit you need to reweld a different end on the cat.

ahh i see sorry, i could learn alot from you alex :):drink:

[Barry123]

neither... for the noise :D

[Ryan]

BTB is a manifold back system with a silencer in place of the cat.

You would need to cut the first box out and have a cat welded in its place.

yates mk2 :P

[AlexB]

ahh i see sorry, i could learn alot from you alex :):drink:

haha maybe

[Ryan]

and to find just the rear box you are going to be searching a long time mate

[Barry123]

let the search commence....

[Ryan]

i sold my spare bent system years back sadly dude.

its very rare people will sell off part of the system. Just get a second hand one thats been mangled slighty at the front (eg had front box cut out) for some reason people do this at times. Then get a cat welded in, well a quick release cat like on mine, then can swap them in 10mins.

Piper exhaust systems are beasts for noise man, look into them instead. cheaper and can be bought easier.

That's what I have on mine, which is why I asked if it was for looks or performance. Looks pretty much identicle at a glance. Viper offered to buy my "BTB"

If I were not so honest I would have sold it to him.

adam, i think you should consult lee before you buy a BTB!

IIRC, you're not allowed one until you have at least 150bhp :D

The noise, it rapes.

It's quite "meaty". Don't like it myself, but that's down to the fact I'm driving a pretty much otherwise standard VTR

Correct why waste £350+ when a £220 one will do the same job

[Ryan]

because its not a waste if they prefer the note and style of the BTB ;)

why waste money on your saxo, when you could buy a better more capable car>

2nd class ride is better then a 1st class walk

[Ryan]

2nd class ride is better then a 1st class walk

just buy the first class ride and be better than both.

[leeroybrown]

I like the saxo...thank you..

Sayer have you looked into any other exhaust then a BTB

[-Jason-]

Are they all oval boxes as if so I dont like them lol.

I loved the raspy sound of my pugsport on the gti but the ashley on the vts doesnt sound as nice :(

[Viper]

and he likes the btb..... :wall:

[Ryan]

a few were made in a cut tip like my system however these are rare. Most came with the oval rear pipe similar to the OE system just slighlty enlarged.

[VtsTom]

My piper exhaust sounds very similer to the BTB when "on song", but its ALOT quiter when im just cruising at 60-70mph

[willsy]

Sayer when are you visiting? Offers still there to have a go in mine
