    Exhaust mods

    Just wondering if anyone has tried any exhaust mods on a 2.7T/D. I see a twin system from manifolds flowing into an enormous muffler exiting to a twin system. Now I appreciate my car being nice and quiet but wondering how it would sound and perform if that muffler wore out or fell off with a full twin system and a coupe of smaller mufflers. Surely turbo would spin up quicker, better economy and sweet note. Cheers Rob.

    Asuming your talking about a discovery with a 2.7 v6 diesel if so cant get any more efficient than a straight through from turbo back ! Will allow it to spool up as quick as it can and being a turbo diesel it shouldn't be to loud

    There is plenty of room for exhaust mods. Keep in mind the oxy-cat (and DPF if fitted??? - don't think it has one?) will have to remain or you run the risk of bid fines.

    The oxy-cat probably does a good job of reducing noise on its own, so whatever you do probably won't be too loud.

    On some of the modern turbos there is apparently a risk that you can overspeed them, leading to premature failure.
