As per title, just curious as to what to expect from that kind of modification ?

A lot of noise I'd guess? :lol:
Mine has a stainless exhaust from cat back with only the middle box and deleted back box, sounds very nice, not too droney or loud.
You say you have a cat, and previously a middle box AND a back box ? My t5 I believe came with - Cat, Suitecase box and that is it ? I currently have a decat and suitcase box and it sounds pretty stock.. Deleting that and replacing with just a cherry bomb on the end would be THAT loud ? (maybe stick a baffle in it or something, do they work ?)
In fact I've assumed I had a back box, middle suitcase and cat - the stainless exhaust was fitted by my buddy (the previous car's owner) a month before I bought it from him, maybe it never originally had a back box?Quote:

As far as I'm aware the exhaust setup (from the cat onwards) looks like this as standard - http://media.skandix.de/eimg/2000334.jpg
I looked underneath and saw a big cut out area for a back box with a single straight tailpipe running through, maybe that's just because the same floor and underbody plan covers all models and some have the back box?Quote:

plus go to the right guy and u can custimise look and sound
will be doing same on 850 t5
I dont suppose you can get some snaps of this setup you have ? I'm having trouble visualising it! Cheers
This will be the plan... eventually.. Thing is my current system is blowing and just want to have a nicer sound on the cheap while I spent money on more important repairs, yes I should be patient but there is no harm in experimenting to see the outcome and then giving ideas to other people interested in modifications to their setup on the cheapQuote:

How much did that cost you ?Quote:
