as it is sold as universal, i would guess that it needs work to make it fit to any car. im sure you can now get mk5 specific exhaust backboxes? :?

anyone else got one on here? the toher option is to go to a custom exhaust place (powerflow etc)and get them to make you just a backbox :idea:

Ive got a Rage backbox on mine, It sounds sweet as fcuk. It did need adapted to fit and the bumper needed cut (slightly). Looks good though.

did you pay 150 for the whole system, catback?
I managed to get a catback system, with a 4.5" tailpipe. it isn't a jap box, so i guess it isn't as loud as the rage cans.

I got my back box for £80 from the Cash & Carry and then paid the garage £25 to fit it.

Its is quite loud when you drive it hard (on private roads) But driving normal it actually isnt that bad.
