nice mate - will be wicked after fitting all those mods. Can you lift the backbox a bit more to fit in the cutr out better, would look real smart then.
What is the 'acoustic valve' what does it do and should I remove mine?

Back box was sat perfectly today until I removed it. D'oh.
The baffles have gone and it's rattling like a biatch so I need to find out where it was made and whip it back.
The acoustic valve is closed between 2 and 4.5k. See here for details. http://cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=96598&highlight=acoustic+valve
I think my car has been much sharper since removal. Also see here for details of my feed. http://cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=96780&highlight=acoustic+valve
