I know the Sportline backbox has the two pipes at the end of the backbox compared to a standard 2.0 litre backbox. My question is, can I stick a standard backbox on the end of my pipe, I have no backbox at present, it stops were the backbox weld is on a full exhaust system. I've located a standard 190 in a scrap yard and I'm thinkink of cutting the backbox off it |

The twin pipe backbox isnt just on sportlines, it's fitted to all catalyst equipped 2.0s. I know when I got a full exhaust put on one of my cat equipped 2.0s, it was completely different to the earlier single tailpipe type, so I dont know if a single tailpipe back box will go on. |

There is a guy over on the MBClub forum selling sports 190e back boxes cheap. Think he is only asking £50 quid for them. However, me and a friend asked him for two of them but still no reply ! They look like a good deal if you can ever get hold of him! Mind you don't become more Fudge than Toffee ...... |

I didnt think mine was too bad, £175 all in two years ago for a full system from the cat back. Mind you we're talking about the impoverished North East here.... |

I got a similar quote just for the backbox, fitted. I'm sure its blowing near the cat as well now, I'll have to investigate |

This is the post about the backboxes. He wants £50 for them but they look good and seem to be decent quality. 190E Backbox Pipe position is a bit strange but I think it will work quite well with my AMG kit. Waiting for an answer from the bloke but I will get my mate to chse him up and tel him to make it three if you definitely want one. |

Thats a good deal, I'm definitely interested if you get hold of the bloke please. Thanks for that! Once I've got my exhaust fixed, all I need (touch wood) is HT leads, distributor cap etc and she'll be running good again |
