Box Chop - mid or back?

Discussion in 'Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, Exhaust etc' started by geegee28, Jan 23, 2015.

  1. Think I'm going to get a midbox like Sarah as done on my 250!
     
  2. So had the mid box chopped yesterday by Ryan at Northwest Performance (Good bunch of people and always busy!). £70 was a bargain too!

    The difference is subtle but I like it. Pops and bangs a lot more on gear change and overrun :smile:

  4. Thanks a lot for the vids! The one I really wasted to see was the interior vid which seems to be private?
     
  5. Try now
     
  6. Sorted. Thanks mate! Sounds good.
     
  7. Yeah I like it. Not too OTT.
     
  8. @0:25 on the chopped interior video, what's that churping noise? Is that the car? I've never heard mine make that noise :smiley:
     
  9. That's my fun prevention alarm haha also known as low fuel!
     
  10. thats convinced me. It sounds well meaty. Does it drive the same following it being done?

    Mine sounds a bit tractorish with having any done mate :wink:

    Do you have a contact on getting the back box done?

    Just found out there's a place close to me in Rochdale that'll do it for about £60
     
  14. Good price and it's a simple job.
     
  15. Has anyone noticed performance difference with the chop?
    either lesser or more?
     
  16. Only sound improve really, if you go to decat you can get some performance difference.
     
  17. Had my the mid box chop done on my RS250 last week and made my own quick vid. Pleased with the change it's made and only cost me £60.
