Title: Cars245 CSS Backbox
Post by: oryx3dr on 25 April 2021, 11:50
Has anyone on here purchased the CSS backbox from Cars245? If so how much was your shipping cost to the UK and how long did it take? Debating if it's easier to just order it from VW direct as they can offer it at £515 discounted.

I ordered mine from them if I remember correctly. Shipping was pretty quick but don't forget you'll have to pay import fees now.

That price from VW seems pretty reasonable. On a side note this is one of the best mods I've done to my car. I still get a hard on when giving it some beans, especially with the DSG fart.

I did think it wasn't too bad tbh, I've only got a res delete so far but it's just not quite scratching that itch, I think pairing it with the CSS backbox will just really hit that sweet spot that I'm looking for. How does yours sound after having it for a while? Did you find that the tone changed somewhat after a few miles?

I've heard the res delete and CSS muffler combo doesn't sound too good. I've not noticed any difference in sound and I've probably done close to 15k miles with it

Just had mine fitted yesterday, sounds epic! Gives some nice burbles on overrun in 1st / 2nd and has a nice snap on the upshift! Very please with it, will try to get some videos at some point.
