Default H & S Angled Jap Style or Race Box 4 WRX

I`m going to changing my standard back box on a group buy on here with H & S I was going with a Jap Style Angled rear box but now I`m thinking changing my mind to a Race box.
Anyone got any pics with a new age with these on. Also I dont want it too loud or boy racer looking as I am now 38.
Pics and Sound Tracks PLEASE!!!.
Thanks
Kev.

I have the Jap style angled rear box from H & S, I was a little bit worried it was too loud at first, but that was only because the standard back box was sooo quiet. I definitely wouldn`t change it now, it makes the car sound how it should have in the first place.

Not the best photo for an exhaust but you can get an idea. That is a racebox. I went for it as didn't want a tunnel on the back of my car and it has a full decat so didn't want the sound levels to be too mad. I find the racebox quite quiet (by Impreza standards) when I want it to be and sounds great when revved. The build quality is second to none.

I have to admit though, now I am not using the car daily I fancy something a bit louder and have been considering a Nur Spec S.

Also, depending on how new age your car is, the angled back boxes do not fit cars with rear diffusers without cutting said diffuser.

I have done the same! I have ordered the Racebox to replace my Ninja 1 as i want it quieter too. Its laughable for me, i have spent hundreds just on back boxes alone LOL.

Sorry mate, don't have one but if the snow clears in the next few days I'll get the car out and make a recording. Have you listened to the audio/video on the scoobyworld website? What I did before buying.
