I have a really thick rubber boot mat to help with droning. It really does cut the noise down quite a bit.
like this stuff: http://www.martins-rubber.co.uk/products/electrical-safety-matting/
I bought some 1 inch thick stuff like above , took the boot mat out of the clio and layed it on top of the rubber mat and used it as a template to cut an exact copy of the boot. I now have it sitting on top of the existing boot mat and the other benefit is that stuff doesnt slide about in the boot as much.
Is this bracket hitting the heat shield?
Brackets rubbing against the bottom of the car won't be causing your problems.
The exhaust is boomy and loud, it's the way the exhaust is - it just doesn't have enough silencing material in it to do the job.
Only option is to chuck the backbox and try to find a decent condition standard backbox instead.
They come with a lifetime guarantee. Although mine has been on my car 18 months / 25k miles and I've had 0 issues.Scorpion are pony, you'll be replacing it again in 2years once it's cracked to s**t and had it welded twice.
Thomas- I emailed them the other day and someone (Tom? Not sure if you now I've seen your username) spoke to my partner earlier today and the options I've been given is either drive my car from Essex to Derbyshire for someone to try to re-fit it. Or remove the exhaust and send it upto HQ for them to test the fitting.
Derby is miles away from me and I can't afford to go all that way. And I can't remove my exhaust and pay to send it to them as I can't afford to send it up there and have no exhaust until it's been tested and checked etc I need a car for work & childcare.
So I'm pretty stuffed either way 😧
Did people say the rs192 fits ok? Are the two backboxes joined together?
