4" Back box??

Post by steste9876 »

Got a corsa sport and was wondering if i should put a 4" single back box on it as the one on at the minute isnt loud enough as it is standard. Has anyone got any pics of a 4" one as i not sure if it would be too big. Cheers

Don't put a 4 inch one on unless you are going to be shooting melons if you want it louder just put a normal back box on and decat ir, that's what stops most of the sound. Or go for a full straight through with a decat, centre race tube and a straight through cherrybomb on the back

i had a 4 inch on mine and it was pretty nice, but ive heard 2 inch decat ones that are louder. just depends what engine u have - u can't decat a 1.2 16 valve like i had

defo get ur middle box taken out and replaced with a bit of pipe tho - cost me 30 quid and it made a big difference lol

Depends how loud you want it. here is a pic of my sportex 4" backbox, makes a great noise, not too loud so the whole country hears it. but loud enough the people round the corner can :) Image
