Selling 200tdi exhaust

Defender 200 tdi exhaust for sale came off my 90 was only fitted last year as new, nothing wrong with it its just i have fitted a straight through instead, i only want £20.00 for it or can swap with something else looking for some lights etc, Collection at any of the shows, we are attending the lro south west show on the 19th of June so can pass it over then get to me if interested thanks Chris

When you say you fitted a straight through exhaust, that's got me thinking. As the back half of my exhaust decided to part company with the Rangie whilst in Holland, I was considering fitting a Cherry Bomb in the middle and large bore stainless to the end.

How would this effect the engine? I have a 200Tdi in the RR don't forget, so would it help engine breathing, would it be detrimental, or wouldn't it make any difference at all? V8's are all about 'back pressuse', but with a diesel I have absolutely no idea if a 'straight though' is good or bad.

Would it make the motor sound a little better? Essential I reckon ... how sad am I?

wont fit,
you have a range rover,
go on ebay tom get a straight through pipe, cheap as chips
stainless aswell have also either found you a new rear axle or a guy to weld up yours if your interested

cheers kieran

yer Tom straight through's are worth the money the landy sounds more rumblyer now just what i wanted also goes a bit better aswell as everythnig is passing through quicker and smoother because it is straight well worth and on a landy is easy to fit.

Diesels just want to breathe easier - you don't need the acoustically configured exhaust like on a petrol motor. Wider is better, and you don't need to change the fuelling to cope with the different back pressures and resonance.

Putting a cherry bomb in the middle won't generate as much boom as it does on a petrol motor, either, as the turbo absorbs a lot of the energy. You just don't get the sharp wavefronts passing down the pipe.

Personally, I like the sound of a thru pipe on turbo diesels, but you'd probably be disappointed, Tom.

as he currently has no exhaust i would trust he has made a choice on the noise

not sure if adisco exhaust will fit but if it will just type in 200 tdi exhaust, get the cheapest

Shame its in Brid. Fuel-wise its not worth considering, what's more it won't be £20 in a day and a half's time.

As the middle box is still intact, may just fit a pipe to the back and forget about a back box completely. It isn't noisy as it is, so just don't want to do 3,000 miles with toxic gases filtering up through the floor.

a plan?

As plans go it ain't a bad plan, and if I had a Disco I might even go for it, but I've decided to go down another avenue; all will be revealed.

Truck style exhausts coming out the roof with flappy things in top and a box round the bottom to cook food in???

Now there's an idea. Reckon I could slip a kipper of two down the stacks? Could have kippers for tea!

tom bear in mind by law you need a silencer

A Cherry Bomb's a silencer ... isn't it? The green RR always passed MOT's for me and now Deano. Think it gets complicated when the original vehicle had a CAT, so I'm assuming a CAT would still required for an MOT??? Just guessing though!

Not an issue with a RR Classic, I will have a silencer.

No, you need the sound level to be sufficiently low at the measuring point to pass a sound test, which is 1.2m from the ground, 7m from the vehicle (For MoT or spot test by police).
An exhaust pipe that opens directly upward will often satisfy this.

as far as my mot guy told me, minimum you need 1 silencer
so i stuck to that

anyways any one want the exhaust £20 or swap some lights etc
