You can change the backbox, but you may aswell get a new center section 'cat-back' aswell if your buying new.
May I recomend kam racings stainless system, everyone seems to be raving about them atm.

if its too loud put a cat back on the car, should sort the noise problem.

Aftermarket exhausts are often very loud as saxos tend to vibrate pretty badly anyway.
As above, either stick the Cat back on or replace the system
Whole exhaust system (standard) is like £200 from Partco unfitted so you mite as well buy a nice aftermarket one that isnt too loud
