Any Stainless steel system will make it sound deeper - its the middle box that makes the most difference though

Having a sportier back box simply gives a more raspy sound...trust me its not what your looking for. Stick to a standard spec back box (but in stainless) and chop out the main big box and replace with a standard cherry bomb correct for the pipe diameter (about £35 from factors).
I know a cherry bomb sounds like its boy racer but it gives a real TVR sound instead of the standard milkfloat! Honestly ..

I briefly owned a P6B estate last year. Holly, highlift cam & Cherrybombs & it sounded great on the move but unobtrusive at the lights. It suited the car well as it was semi-customised. It's not the sound I'd like on my P5B though. A V8 can never sound boy-racerish because they're V8's...  |

I put a NZ version of a cherry bomb in for my middle box soon after getting the car as the main box was well rusted and failed a WOF.
( NZ Warent of Fitness, 6 monthly version of a mot) A friend has a muffler shop so I asked him what he would suggest to get a nice V8 sound and this was his recommendation. I love the sound just enough rumble to make you feel god but not enough to annoy neighbors.
Regards
