   Hi everyone,
   
   I've just purchased a Saxo VTR X-Reg this week.
   
   Looking to know how to get more noise from it.
   
   All I know is that there is a Supersprint Backbox on it...Don't know what type of middle box it has.
   
   Car also has standard mani...
   
   Thanks

   basically get a new manifold, and an un-silenced center pipe, and that will do it

   Drill some holes in your airbox, remove your backbox. you'll have the loudest coolest car in your town.

    If money is an issue forget the Mani and decat + straight through it , it will pop and be loud the Mani will just add bhp and make it alot raspier. I've got a decat and straight through + a 4" backbox and it's to loud, it's embarrassing when every1 turns their heads expecting a scooby when it's only a saxo lol

    I'm going to get the raceland manifold fitted and I'm going to remove the middle box this week so hopefully I will see a small improvement in response and a good improvement in noise
