Big Hole In Centre Box, Info on New Box Wanted
« on: 26 December 2005, 08:29 »
So, just found a fist sized hole in centre box (ok I have a small fist, ex didnt mind  :evil:) so am after info on what to do about it. Should I replace with standard centre box or do any company's do a link pipe to back box which removes all the silencers all together. Or would this be TOO loud? Its allready got a Muppet Back Box (S/S DTM Type) so what to do?

Replace system with link pipe and just run a back box?

Replace system with standard pipes and silencers?

Info on exhaust systems and companys who do em please!

Thanks  :smiley:
