Swapping a Scorpion exhaust middle box to a BMW one

I have a full scorpion exhaust on my sport,(down pipes back)but the middle box is knackered and has no baffles in it anymore and is completly hollow,it sounds awfull.... My scorpion backbox is fine.
Is it possible to fit a original BMW 325i middle box in it's place?
If yes is it just a straight swap,if no, any ideas on whats best to do,i really cant stand the noise it makes! :evil:

cheers for any help

Rick.

if the downpipes are not part of the middle section i.e one piece you can swap them over no problem
