Guest s11pyk Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 iv managed to secure a stainless magnex back box from an rs turbo for a nice sum off the worlds favorite auction site. my car is an xr3i efi on a h reg, will the back box slip straight on no fuss or am i in for a challenge?

gingergman Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 try getting a reducer pipe or somthing, you can get them made for exact diffrence of a stadard size mite fit, i bodged mine on, was ok for a while, in the end i opted for a full custom system as i got fed up of the rs box blowing and falling off lol. you could take it to a garage and get them to fit it, weld it up would be your best bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shaun Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 as gingergman said you need a reducer other wise it will fall off or blow....turbo exhaust is much fatter........good luck m8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
