FR/Cupra Backboxes

[pandamonium]

Hi all,
Just like to say hello first of all as this is my first post.
My name is Paul and I drive a 2003 VW Polo 9N

She's my baby and i've really been working hard on her to get her up to the standard I want! So here's a spec list!

As you can see, a pretty OEM+ car, so i'm looking to add a nice little backbox to her. Nothing stupidly big or loud and I want to keep it OEM, so I figured i'd pop over here and see what the Ibiza FR/Cupra backboxes were like and try get my grubby mits on one and bodge it on to my existing system. Not much extra noise and a nice subtle look.

So do you have any pictures of the FR/Cupra backboxes and how much should I be looking at for a second hand one? oh and has anyone got one for sale!?
I'm located in the north east

Thanks for getting this far and merry xmas to you all.

Welcome to site! Where abouts in the north east are you from? Just curious - don't have a back box! keep your eye on the accessories for sale section on here.

A Fabia vRS one is also similiar and would fit

 

[pandamonium]

I'm from Sunderland and yeah, I know the VRS one would fit, but preffer the twin pipe style of the FR.
Does the cupra have the oval style?

 

[spyke85]

Yeah, Cupra is oval

 

[pandamonium]

Any pictures of the two varieties?

 

[gazjones]

thas the fr standard box

and a cupra one

 

[spyke85]

FR one for you

 

[pandamonium]

ah either one of those would be sweet! All i've got to do is find someone selling one!

 

[gazjones]

think few more fr ones will be up for sale. but keep an eye out on people upgrading there exhaust.

 

[pandamonium]

I'm guessing it'll give a little bit of a deeper note too all good.

 

[gazjones]

possibly but not much sound difference. what size engine is yours? removing the middle box will give you more noise

 

[pandamonium]

I don't actually want that much more noise,
noisy exhausts get on my tits, especially when cruising on the motorway!

 

[gazjones]

you will be surprised the fr and cupra's arnt noisy at all all motorways and very quiet considering they are turbo cars with a fair bit of power

 

[pandamonium]

just what i wanted to hear gaz, hopefully i'll be able to get my hands on an FR or cupra back box sooner rather than later

my fr gives a nice purr but nothing major but if you have a small engine it may not make any difference and you may be better buying one of those add on ends if you can hide it well with your bumper
