lo ian

is it a round tail pipe and is the insides the same as a normal scooby back box??

funny question but i nearly bought 1 last week but then found out from my dealer that it gave no power gains or helped the gas flow out any.

would it fit a my 97 catalunya.

what about postage where r u from.

Yes...its a round tailpipe....probably 3 or 3 1/4"

No...it does not have the standard innards of a normal scooby backbox.

I am pretty such this is very similar in terms of performance to a scoobysport backbox (which I have - and have had on my previous 2 scooby turbos). I couldn't tell any performance difference between the 2 on the P1.

Sound is very nice...not quite as loud as a scoobysport but very nice all the same. Just trying to clear all the bits out of the garage.

The prodrive P1 box is a beaut !! [just bought one]........ It allegedly gives another 4% in performance, and sounds looooovely.
I agree with Ian though - I cant feel any difference in power etc.
I'm not sure though whether the mounting prongs are different - prodrive mentioned something about this to me when I spoke to them.................
Oh - and that is a damn good price for one....... !

Ian,

I have mailed you. Would definitely like the backbox if still available. I work in Mansfield and so can arrange to meet you to suit yourself.

I was one of the people you took round as a passenger in your P1 at the Donno meet - a memorable experience

Cheers,

Ian E. 07974 785523

Cheers

Doc 1,

Fitted the backbox from Ian yesterday.

As Gastro says, get one you won't regret it.

Haven't noticed much of an increase in performance but it sounds superb

Cheers,

Ian E.
