Same as myself , my problem has been that the centre box from german swedish has the same diameter bore as the scopion so i had to get 2 sleeves of a larger diameter , not a job i'm happy about , when the weather improves it's coming off and i'll get the sleeves tig welded to the rear box and remove when set of u bolts currently fitted, as regards the 6 branch , no problems with it

Daz . i believe it's a boyson, except for the fitting problem the centre box is fine , the noise levels are minimal and imo dosn't attract attention which is fine for me Make sure that which ever make centre box you buy has the rear bracket to fix the hanging strap to as the scopion rear box is a really hefty piece of kit and you can't rely on the 2 rear straps which go around the rear box to keep it up Hope this makes sense to you

Pop into any exhaust centre they should be able to 'expand' any pipework so that you can slip the exhaust parts together
