Sound like a Petrol

[Dyscontinued]

Hi,

I've searched around all over the forums but not really found a simple answer, I got confused with all the Mufflerectory talk and I'm a real newb.

Anyways, I'm sure the answer will be no, and feel like a bit of a heretic even asking, but:

Is there any way to get the MkI Leon Cupra TDi to sound more like a petrol car would? Diesel sound is always the thing I like least about my otherwise great (and completely standard) car!

Cheers

Well you could decat it or buy a full miltek exhaust. Cheaper to decat.

Would this pose any MOT/legal/regulatory/anything problems?

They sound quite petrol-like at the rev limiter. Mine did

Yeh I must admit there is quite a grunt when pushed.

Not with Dervs.

Just found and read two threads on decats and removing the back box was mentioned as more effective, or just remove the whole lot and save weight too. hmmmm might pop along to the local exhaust maker and ask if I can get round to it.

Cheers jonjay.
