any 1.8 or 2.0 8v boxes should fit...whats wrong with the fitting?

Also the 16v and VR6 backboxes can be made to fit relatively easily!

I beg to differ! The front pipe can be sleeved really easy from the cat back but sleeving the backbox isn't easy as it can mess with the angle of the box meaning the exhaust hangs wrong!!
(mainly where it comes from the cut-out in the bumper)
