Default My new back box!!!!

One of the contractors in work said he would make me a back box for my impreza. The cogs started turning and this is what i ended up with.





Im heading to Pro-Speed in Cardiff this thursday, I asked charie for the slip joints as per wrc exhaust and he said it wasn't a problem. Top Guy.


Back plate of the box is removable so i can add or remove wadding to increase or decrease the sound.


What you think???

If you are struggling to pick up the parts from Charlie let me know as I could pick them up for you and meet you off J45.

I'm going to have it coated in the ceramic stuff so it'll look more group A. I personally don't like bling on classics. Rally slags.

What will you be filling it with?
i had a thought of making one before, we have some highdensity rockwool thats fire rated in work but wasnt sure it would withstand constant heat being used as an exhaust.
would be interesting to hear what it sounds like when done.

It ain't that bad, but at 3K it makes every panel in the car vibrate. So 5.5-6 K everywhere then.

You need to hear it in person to be honest its not that loud inside but nice outside. If you know what i mean?

No sorry I am not going, I am working on Saturday

Until I get the remap, brakes, steering/suspension alignment (tomorrow at David Coe), etc etc done , I would not take it on the track as it is handling like a boat at the moment hence my 'slow' progress through the Elan valley on Sunday.

I am definitely going to be going to the next one in September though.
