Personally i would not use scrubbing pads as all exhausts suck and blow and any loose scrubbing metal may get sucked into the engine.
As stated get the main box as big as possible as hot exhaust gasses need somewhere to expand.

Thanks Dave. Is there any chance you might be able to supply a simple drawing or diagram? It would make the explanation a lot clearer.
