   Just fitted my brand new piper 3" outward rolled backbox, i only baught the backbox as lacking of funds will be getting manifold n centre section soon but will be a couple of months. Once i fitted it i realised it was super quiet only a small change in sound which kinda sucks but i must say it does looks the dogs imo. Will it be a louder once it gets a bit 'worn in' and if so will it be dramatically or will i continue to be dissapointed (until the rest of the exhaust is fitted)?
   Thanks for any help,
   Wez

    Go for centre section first then decide if you want more noise or not. I've got a manifold and Piper system with middle box on my VTR and it's pretty loud at the best of times. Linky.
