GREENI: what engine is yours and i take it the side exit has no silencers?was thinking about going the straight through route on my 300tdi but worried it may be too noisy,removed the center silencer at the mo and its a nice sound just wouldnt mind it a bit louder!
Disco-Ron:
I reckon the truck in the video has no centre silencer, obviously a snorkel which makes the intake noise more noticable, probably a performance air filter of some sort, and i'm wondering about a hybrid turbo, as it seems to boost up very early.... almost at tickover.... goes well too!!
Porny:
At a guess (having done a few of them)...
It has an early not CAT Td5 down pipe, and a straight through centre silencer. The rear box will be standard.
Is perfectly legal, and will pass MOT's etc etc... also gives a marginal performance game.
I did the same mods to a 110 in Greece recently, and the owner was very pleased to say the least!!! :twisted:
My 300 sounds similar (if not slightly louder) with a side exit, and a very small silencer (no CAT) - is also in 2.5". :wink:

The turbo isn't making boost pressure when you are looking at it idle'ing/being rev'd... (well a very, very small amount) is just the noise of the turbo spinning... standard or hybrid will do the same. (a turbo only makes boost when the engine is under load)
Also, you wouldn't here the air filter from the back - but you will with the window down when actually driven under load - with or with a snorkel.
