   that link is to a generic supersprint back box not an ashley saxo box lol
   
   but to answer your question a back box made for a saxo will fit any saxo as long as its not something like a saxsport or magnex where they are designed to only fit to there matching center pipes

   Okay so this ashley backbox should be a direct fit yes ? and not need a matching center section,
   yeah iv seen on some threads about people getting those ones and not fitting and having to go get center sections

   I have this but mine is all stainless, mines on a 1.4furio so no silencer.
   
   Purs nicely at idle
   1.5-3k revs sounds quite but deep
   3-4k revs "The Sweetspot" sounds amazing
   4-6.5k revs deep and loud but not bad on the motorway

   It fitted directly on but was blowing badly and also burnt a new hole on the bottom of my bumper, went to a garage got them to heat up the center section and reposition it and now its perfect. duno if you can see in this picture where it burnt the second hole/arch
