As far as I can tell, just changing the back box won't make any real difference in performance, unless it is a particularly restrictive part of the system - which wouldn't seem to be the case. There are places that will make a custom system for you, which seems like a good choice - you want an exhaust that will be as unrestrictive as possible whilst giving you good gas flow velocity.. or something like that ;) Basically, there'll be an optimum pipe diameter somewhere for your engine. Exhaust specialists will be able to help figure out what it is, and I guess those perfomance systems you can buy off-the-shelf should be optimised - there is a general rule for exhaust pipe diameter based on the engine capacity.... Can't quite remember it now.
