Hi, new to this forum.

I have a 04 530d, I have replaced the rear box with a Remus Backbox with twin 78mm chrome pipes, it looks great and has nice note to it. Cost ?330 fitted.

Actually particle filter does not have anything to do with catalytic converter. Cat is chemical "thing" and particle filter is only filter.

Bended pipes are because of smoking, because that way "smoke" (very small amount) mix better with air. With particle filter there is not "smoke" to try to hide. Also it's difference between EURO3 and EURO4 emissions.

With straight pipes you get more black to tail than with bended, if there is no filter.

And welcome Gav530d.

The backbox was supplied and fitted by Wheel Power in Brockley, SE London, if you want one give them a call and speak to Mark, I will post a pic tommorow.
