    Universal backbox

    at the min, i cant seem to find anywhere that sells magnex 3-4" round backboxes especially for my 1.4rt.... looked everywhere but they seem to be for 16v, RSi etc...

    i have seen a 3.5" magnex universal box, but anyone had experience with these... are they a good fit, what sort of noise do they give? thanks, sam

    ...and anything over 3" just looks and Imprezive anyway!

    "Imprezive": any car part that looks like it should be fitted to an Impreza or any other Japanese car but has been fitted to a non Jap car and hence looks out of place. :D

    [hijack thread] ^ Jap car owners seem to think the laws aof chavness don't apply to them but sticking a drainpipe and £200 dump valve on ya standard Impreza makes you a grade-A chav! [/hijack thread]

    imo 3" looks just right on a clio. I've got one on the 1.4 and I would want a bigger exhaust tbh. 3.5" would probably be OK, but definately no more than that.
