opinions cobra rearbox

[james walker]

fellas, have the opportunity to purchase a nearly new cobra rear box... any opinions on them please..

for cupra mk1

anyone used them for anything?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

I've seen that to

 

[james walker]

ha ha, well whaddya reckon?? afaik cobra are custom exhausts.. so im guessing its custom made, but it is fairly cheap aswell

scoobys have them iirc, but quality, sound etc??

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Its me bidding on it didn't bid very much tho I really want a scorpian.

I had a universal Cobra backbox on my 5GTT and it was ok...I didn't actually realise they did specific fit parts until I saw the ad.

 

[james walker]

im not sure it is specific fit adam, i reckon custom made to fit....

scorpion on the bay aswell... rear box 199 quid cat back 285...

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Is that catback still on there? I was watching it whilst I was saving then someone bought it.

 

[james walker]

looks like its gone adam, but it was from roadrunner motorsport in notts, they relist them when back in stock, asked them before.

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Yeah they got a Miltek in stock but I keep reading bad reports about the quality of them....and there more expensive.

I have already got an exhaust but its a custom one and I'm not convinced its best for performance.......guess I could get car mapped first and see

 

[james walker]

yeah thinking the same tbh.... im gonna stick to purpose made i reckon.

 

[LEE69]

Yeah the pipe out of the back is far to short

 

[SalSheikh]

or is it just a standrd pic they have used not not one of the right part?

 

[james walker]

nah its a private seller so itll be the right one.....

 

[LEE69]

Did you buy it as the auction as been closed?

 

[james walker]

no mate, not me....... rather stay with a proven product i think... always got eyes on a bargain tho, if it turns out that way

 

[LEE69]

Me too, much to the wifes dismay

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Wonder where that went

 

[LEE69]

Wasn't me mate, or was it you?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Yeah me once I'd checked picture off it on car to see make sure it sat ok.

Can't be any worse than my current bean tins

 

[LEE69]

Nice one.
