If youre starting with a blank canvas, have a think about how loud you want it. ie if youre planning on doing any track work then you'll be wanting something under 95dB.
The prodrive rear box is a nice clean item that isnt too in your face, but there are plenty out there to choose from.

Welcome

As Frayz says, if noise is an issue, the Prodrive backbox still has the burble, but is subtle compared to Hayward and Scott, Ninja, after burner etc.

It's £50
