Re: does a performance backbox make same sound as a cat bk system??? debate with frie
I got a Powerflow backbox and had a steel pipe made up from the cat back to it, It's lovely, it's boomy on acceleration but at held speed it's quiet-ish. Cost me in total about £150, £20 for the backbox and then then £130 for the steel pipe and paying a friend to cut it, weld it etc. I'll try and get you a video of it if you wish?
Mines a 1.4 so it'd be a little louder than your 1.2. Be different and get a 2-stroke motorcycle exhaust and go to town on that bad boy
In seriousness though, be ready for people to tell you 'why would you?' 'dont it's a 1.2' 'it'll sound s**t' etc. It's YOUR car so do what YOU want (within the law), Like Russ_16v's article on peoples opinions. your motor, if you like it, that's what matters.
