After all... The V8 is only 500cc per piston just like the TD5.
But the TD5 is producing a stronger bang per stroke

Then there is the bang per buck at the Servo

I don't mind the sound of the TD5 with an open system (as in no mufflers) but I have only done it by taking off the exhaust before the centre muffler. It makes it a little bit ****ty sounding, i reckon it would sound alot better if it were straight through right through... give it more of a deeper smoother noise rather than the sorta half high pitched noise it produces ending before the centre.

Have you got any video andy of yours how it is? Would be interesting to hear what it's like.

Cheers,
