rallycinq Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Only me! 91 110CSW 200TDI Mr MOT man has 'advised' that the exhaust is not long for this world. I intend keeping this vehicle fr a while so would consider something in stainless. I tow lots of plastic fronted caravans, so it needs to be a side exit, like standard. I am looking at tweaking the fuel pump/bigger intercooler for a bit more grunt. Suggestions and sources, please. Ta David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Smith Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I have the Janspeed performance one on mine and am very impressed with it. It seems to work well with the Alisport intercooler, sounds nice without being loud, and fits perfectly. I tried to fit a Rimmer bros one to my old 110 and it was awful, didn't fit at all well and was sent back for a refund. Only downside was I got it from scrapiron racing so it took forever to get the right bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Got a DoubleS system on my 110, been on since '95 without any problems. http://www.stainlesssteelexhausts.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallycinq Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Thanks I've asked for a quote. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurriaan Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Got a Double S sports exhaust for my 110. Originally made for a V8, but I'm changing the V8-specific bit for a 300Tdi front pipe. Fits my chassis nice, no experience on the sound it provides yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bean Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 you could also try Powerflow and then you can choose how loud it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bm52 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 just had to change my exhaust on my 300tdi kept the non cat down pipe added a straight thru scorpion centre pipe replaced the rear box with an original the difference is huge, more torque, more low down power, better drive-ability. and a really cool sound but not over loud inside or outside. i really recommend a straight thru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallycinq Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 SS phoned me today with what seems like a very good quote for the whole system with straight through centre pipe. They call this their 'utility' system. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be interested in something similar and would be curious to know how much i need to save up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallycinq Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Sorry, taken a while to reply. Finally ordered mine, £293 the price. Must also say, Really nice people to talk to and deal with. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I added a striaght through pipe to mine a while ago to replace the centre silencer, my thread here don't think it's made any noise difference & the engine seems to be a bit more responsive.

I've gone for the 'sports utility' system, which is the one without the centre silencer. I guess it will be noisier than the standard mild steel system, but that isn't the noisiest thing in a Defender anyway. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Part1cle Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Looking forward to your comments when its on and when you have run it for a few months, David - in my experience exhausts often quieten down when they have been run for a while. The only time I was caught for speeding was when I had a proprietry "sports" exhaust on my GT6 and the plod said he heard me coming - LOL. Hope to do the same soon...... Cheers, H.

Aragorn Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Mate of mine has a 300tdi, with the straight thru centre pipe, no cat, and a late model rear pipe with no box. Contrary to what you'd expect its not actually that noisy at all, but you get a nice whistle from the turbo out the pipe, and a nice exhaust note. The turbo acts as a pretty good silencer.

rallycinq Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Ok, now fitted. Needed a wee bit of a heat and bend in two places to get it on. Noise, now thats very subjective. It transpires that the standard exhaust had a hole in the top of the over axle pipe and the pipe into the centre box was leaking too. The new system, obviously brand new, gives a different deeper sound, and the whistle can be heard. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
