Hi guys If you can help pls, want to get my back box chopped out and wonder what i should expect to pay and anyone know of anywhere decent in south east Tunbridge wells area that have had it done? cheers
Can Ren7oaks (in Sevenoaks rather unsurprisingly) do it? Give 'em a call... http://www.ren7oaks.co.uk/garage/index.php I had mine done years ago by Roy at STS Tyre Pro in Bromley (used to be called RSR when I went there) - he has done loads of Megane box chops so knows what he's doing. He made an exhaust for a former member on meganesport.net called Andy Basset that sounded like a jet-fighter! It cost me £65 for just box chop but that was a good few years ago now...
Thanks vm mate I called Roy and going to drop in on sat for a quote, will call the garage in Sevenoaks tomorrow also. Is it worth the cash you think?
It's more than worth it mate - it sounds like it should have done from the factory in my opinion. If you chop the back box out then you get pops/crackles/bangs and the unique whistle sound. If you chop the mid-box out you get pops/crackles/bangs but lose the whistle. It doesn't drone either. This is mine recorded between the exhaust outlets
great thanks mate going to get it done at STS in Bromley as long as they dont try and take my pants down price wise. cheers
Any news on how you got on @Nibbles12? I'm not far from Bromley and I'm looking to get the mid box chop done on my 250, so I'm looking for somewhere suitable! Cheers.
Hi Yeah STS Bromley do them, Roy is the guy in the know and will give you a quote quick enough Good luck
Dropped in at STS in Bromley to get a quote from Roy to remove the centre silencer on my 250. Half an hour later it was off for £75 Only slightly louder inside, but more pops and cracks from the exhaust! Can't wait to see what it sounds like when I get my decat on at the end of the month. If I wasn't having the decat, I'd be taking both silencers off I think.
