magnex backbox - no louder than standard

[GavGti]

is it best to get a performance center section or maybe save up for a full system

thats what i was hoping for - at least some sort of louder noise than standard
but nope, it's just like i replaced the backbox with a nice looking chrome 1 , lol

what should i do?

seen a sports cat on ebay, u reckon that would help ?

no you need to remove the middle box, they have them as standard on the golfs, go to somewhere like powerflow and have one made up.. my magnex dounds fantastic it really does, id say its perfect..wish i could some how show you

mines not magnex but at idle it no louder than normal.....but above 4000rpm it sounds    
and replace the middle box like kells has before swapping the cat......

when i replaced my back box with my remus, i never really noticed any difference in sound. only when i relpaced the centre box with a s/s centre pipe did i notice the sound. now with s/s manifold and de-cat, the car is loud!!!!!!

Ive got a full Powerflow system and it sounds really good, makes people turn round and look if you boot it through the town

yep mine is loud on idle, not cheesy just mean and on throttle it sounds fantastic

To be fair if you have a 2.0 engine with a decent exhaust its impossible for it to sound cheesey, if it was a 1.4 saxo then yes it would

so where can i get 1 of those center box replacements from that volksbits use to do
they don't seem to sell them anymore
