182 back boxes

[Arctic_Monkey]

As above, my recently acquired 182 has its p/s back box completely split from the rest of the system
I believe both rear boxes have to be replaced?
I would like a stainless number, but the Mrs would hate it, unless there are any stainless that sound just like standard?
The backbox was replaced new, only 3 years ago. Shame it hasn't lasted!
Any advice appreciated.

I've found a guy on gumtree, with a milltek system for sale in Edinburgh. He had it fitted with a decat as well, and said he doesn't think you can just fit the system from the cat back? I was under the impression you could just fit the back box and center section to the standard cat?

The Milltek does not sound anything like standard.

Listened to a coupe of videos on youtube and it didn't think it sounded that much different to standard.

I shall do some more investigating

No aftermarket exhaust or backbox will sound as quiet as the original . 3 years isn't a long time for the standard back box to rot through though . Stainless is the only way to go , it'll last llonger than car itself. As said Miltek or Scorpion 192 is about as quiet as you'll get for an after market exhaust.
