I believe this is standard on UK Spits MkIV and 1500's, don't know why but it
looks weird.  I never bothered with a standard UK back box as I thought it
sounded crap, so I bought a semi sport (Narrower Transverse box with 2 pipes 
instead of one) from the TSSC, I thought it would be reasonably quite, how
wrong could I have been, but, it's was 80 quid, made of stainlesss and has a
lifetime guarantee, AND was 10 quid cheaper than a Standard one in Stainless!
                                                                             
Cheerio
