Hi, thinking of getting a new backbox, quite like the look of the rage sp12 and the st11, and a few others.
Who has a rage backbox?
Whats the quality like?
do they sound nice? or cheap and nasty?
can u fit them straight easily?? As i currently have a BB4 and it comes out at an angle (tried straighting it, but it looked weird as it was no where near the small exhaust recess on my post 97 rear)
could you please post pics up.
If not rage what would you recomend? pics aswell please
thanks for any replies

My mate has the sp8 on his Clio...i wanted it for mine. Powerflow fitted it for him and removed the middle box. He sez it sounds quite nice but is abit raspy.

This is my Rage SP3 exact fit back box. Fitting was no harder than ANY other back box. Garage who fitted it had no problems at all. It sounds ok, not as good as Scorpion as Magnex but then again it didnt cost as much. It idles nicely when warm and then growls as you accelerate. Even in 5th gear when u take your foot off the gas and press the pedal down again it makes noise. Only had mine 3 months but havent had any probs with rust or rattling.

The sp9 and 10 have had really good reveiws in many different mags. And if you get it fitted by someone like powerflow and they remove the middle silencer then they should sound amazing

thanks guys, any more pics? I was thinking of sebring centre section (basically a stainless pipe from rear of car to backbox, whick is bout £100) And a rage sp 12 back box, the 4" slash cut tunable one.
Shurely they shouldnt rust off??? there supposed to be stainless steel??
Corsa120 do u just have the back box on std system? or do you have the centre silencer removed ??

Mine isnt universal so i'm assuming it'll be a better fit and wont 'fall off'.
Like i've said i've not had one problem with mine. Fancy a change soon though so watch this space

i have got a rage back box its the 4.5" outward rolled lip, mines coming out of the centre. sounds really nice (deep and rumbly) with my cossie cone.
just bought a new rage backbox, the twin 5" one, gettin it fitted soon. i aint no problems with the back box, only problem i have had is that the brackets holding the exhaust on have snapped but that was down to the work done at ascar exhausts in sheffield.
