Anyone put an exhaust on a 140 TDi ?

Technical discussion such as Bluetooth, Sat-Nav, iPods, tyres, brakes, all that kind of stuff.

Does this sound horrendous ? I quite fancy getting a TBE before I remap it next year.
Just wouldny want a dreadful Diesel sound. As long as it sounds no too bad, I'd do it.

I had replaced the back box with a straight pipe into two stainless steel tips. Kinda like the 170 but slightly bigger diameter and slash cut. Looked much better than standard. Sounded almost exactly the same except for when the DPF regen was running. Then you could hear a lot of turbo noise through the exhaust when you plant your foot. I have heard other VAG diesels with more elaborate exhaust work and the result is just more of the whooshy turbo sound through the exhaust and a bit more of a deep rumble at idle. Not tractorish though if that's what you're worried about,
