Styling Will adding a back box effect my insurance?

[fiatash123]

As title says, the stock one is rusted to shizzle and want to add a slightly bigger exhaust but not OTT, maybe a 3" tip?

Would like to get one, providing it wont effect my policy?!


Anyone got any good sites and brands they'd reccomend?

Thanks

You will have to tell your insurer regardless. Wether they charge you is up to them, but they probably won't. Just give them a ring and ask them

Janspeed are nice. Or I have a Magnex cat back on fleabay (assuming Cinq).

Ok thought so. Its a seicento sporting, when i put my bike exhaust on which is a slip on assuming the back box is the same principle to just change the sound abit.

Is there specific exhaust back box or how do you fit the universal ones? Would a cinq fit on the sei sporting?

There are specific and general ones. A Cinq cat back won't be a straight fit on a Sei.

Hard to say, some companies give you a 5% power increase grace & good will on minor cosmetic changes, others start laying on extra premium with factory fit optional extras!

universal back boxes never fit right, buy one tailored for your car for best fit and sound

sooo is a replacemnt back box called a cat back box?? As ive looked and i can only see exhausts called cat back boxes? Can people put a list of possible exhausts list please .

Backbox is just the rear silencer (and sometimes the tail pipe) cat back is everything from the catalyst back. Try eBay. Or google for exhaust systems (or by make).

 

[levemircento]

Bosal list the whole back box/mid pipe as one pipe, bolted on after the cat, so some exhaust makers might refer to it as cat back

from this page: http://www.catalogue.bosal.com/pages/exh_system_list.php?query_nr=2&make=&model=seicento

Riight i see but what i still dont understand is the back box is not straight out it is sideways and then a curved pipe then the exhaust tip.

Ive seen alot of back boxes which is what i want (not a universe one) for the cinq but not the sei sporting.
