Hi, I'm thinking of buying a backbox for my car but don't want something that is going to be loud but just something that will give it a nice sound/rasp. I used to have this haiki straight through exhaust system and got sick of how loud it was withing a month.
I was thinking about a Supersprint backbox as i thinking these sound so nice but would it be loud that will piss me off after a while?
This has most probably been covered numerous times, I apologize if it has lol

Supersprint is probably the best mate
Not too loud either just a nice raspy tone

I have got a Mango Westcoast yeah, it's got a standard system atm and an induction, I've been reading that a magnex is quite quiet, any comments?

On an 8v the supersprint (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-backbox/citroen-saxo-supersprint-race-backbox.html) is not overly loud. What centre pipe you currently got?
Other alternatives are our KAM Racing backbox (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-backbox/kam-racing-stainless-steel-race-backbox-citroen-saxo.html) and the piper backbox (http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-backbox/citroen-saxo-1-4-1-6-vtr-vts-96-00-piper-stainless-steel-backbox.html)

Supersprints sound wank, just like a load of wasps in a coke can.
Piper sounds far better IMO, nice deeper note

It's just a standard centre pipe. As i said i did have a straight through Haiki exhaust system which sounded nice but literally went through you with how loud it was lol and got rid after a month.

get a piper backbox mate. supersprints look wank imo, just a little pea shooter which is smaller than standard :homme:

I got a supersprint on my 8v and its raspy when you put your foot down. but otherwise its pretty tame i think. Not overly loud when normal driving or a drone on motorway. And mines de cat too.
