3 litre back box on 2.5
« on: 18 April 2009, 14:35:01 »
i'm going to change my back box on the mig tomorrow from the standard 2.5 to a 3 litre back box
i'm hoping it will make a differnt exhaust tone

if it don't ill take the back box off altogether and put 2 straight pipes out the back

the 3.0 is inheriantly more noisy than the 2,5 exhaust note wise it will stay the same all you will have is twin exhausts like a 3.0 :y

with a Y Piece a vectra irmscher or astra irmscher exhaust will fit an omega v6 and they are alot cheaper than an omega irmscher bb
