   Ive just got delivered a 3" round peco backbox from ebay, not that popular on saxos but I cant wait to get it fitted. Hopefully it will fit onto the standard system will I need a new clamp or anything or will the old one be fine as long as its not ready for the bin?

   well if the original clamp looks okay you will be alright to use this , if you do want to change it they are only a few quid if that, from local motor factors.

    ive got a peco 3.5 inch slash cut jap can, it was a straight fit onto standard centre section, you need smaller rubber hangers on some of them though or it hangs down a bit, sounds great too, of all the back boxes ive had on the vtr its been on the longest.
