3" Redback exhaust, Performance Ok but go some questions.

It took about 1000km of driving before my exhaust made any difference. It now runs great and I am really happy with it. Fuel economy is down 1L/100km and I have an improvement in low down torque. I also cleaned my MAF which helped too.
I put on a 3" scotts rods

Not so sure about CRD engine exhaust size but can confirm on the DI engine the factory exhaust system diameter is only 2'' and 1 3/4 '' from turbo flange to cat . Have just fitted the 2 3/4 '' beaudesert system to mine and I dont like it at all .... I love it ..

Kev, Good thinking mate, I will do just that and let you know how I go. Have a good holiday mate and catch up in new year

What motor do you have Steve4wdin???

Well now some 400km under the belt and i must say the performance is actually staggeringly better, just as i though, the torque range is simply nice and liniar, no more big bang and nothing.

Great news mate, Any idea when the torque starts coming on?

Starts to build at 1600 but at 1800 really going and by 2000 its well and trully on the boil. Loving it. On the highway its just great.

One thing to note it still pulls well and trully into the 3800 range
