Is it illegal to not have a back box?? I know my mate drove his polo without one for a while lmao!

i dont think it is illegal as such but takin the back box off will make u loose power big time as there isnt enough back pressure etc for your engine

Yeah never thought about the back preassure.. A decent exhaust sounds alot better lol.

I have a 4.5" on my VTS with a K&N filter and it sound really nice.. maybe a bit too loud in my neighbours opinion ;)

Have you got a performance center section without a silencer?

supersprint straight through centre section off Kam? cheap enough at roughly 70 quid delivered

if your cat is under the car get one that decats it

if your budget is extremely tight, a universal open filter will give a bit of a roar?
