Straight thru' exhausts, are they....

(1/4) > >>

landraver:
legal? i.e. will it pass an M.O.T.?
I've built one for the 90 but will it pass? The 90 is an '87 with a 300tdi engine. The exhaust exits between the passenger door & the rear wheel arch. Your thoughts would be appreciated!
Cheers fellas

Xtremeteam:
mines is straight thru,only has the diddy wee silencer at the back & is made up of about 4/5 different bits o landy exhaust welded together,on a diesel its ok to have no silencers as the turbo kills nearly all o the noise

Paul:
Depends on the noise emitted from the vehicle...

If it is clearly unreasonably above the level expected from a similar vehicle with a silencer then it can be failed.

There is also no requirement for a diesel to have a silencer.

drmike:
Is there any benefit to a turbo diesel having a straight through exhaust?
