Quagmire Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Depends on what engine you have, how good your hearing is etc. I thought my 3.5 was too quiet with the standard silencer setup, however post Billing and after hearing some stupidly loud 8's I now think that its perfect! Almost silent at tick-over but still roars when you press the loud pedal. Also I wont go deaf on the motorway (Well not from the engine anyway, the transfer box is another matter ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbs Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 On my 200 tdi 90 I don't have any silencers on it at all-to me it sounds ok and seems to have gained a small amount of power too, I've had my MOT done about nearly 3 months ago now and nothing was said about it not having any silencers on it HTH John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Hancock Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 A Tdi or TD will never be as loud as some of the chav exercise boxes that are running about. Now if you had a Roller Griffon under the bonnet with straight pipes that would be a different matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
