Hi fellas looks like I've done a manifold gasket and was thinkin bout putting a set of extractors on seeing as I gotta take manifold off. Was wondering will i get any noticable gain out of my td 42 or is more just the sound cheers

You'll always get a power increase with this sorta mod, but the diesels don't tend to respond like the petrols.
Much better option is turbo.. ;-)

Put the money towards a turbo setup.

When i put my extractors on my td42 it made a very notable difference overall. Produced alittle more power but it made huge difference in the rev range. Car revs a lot easier and is very friendly at higher revs. Just make sure you know what up for they don't just bolt in and depending what system you have going behind. I made a custom section to join to my lukey 2.5 system. I had to cut rotate flanges. O and while im at it the last bolt at the back of the block is a pain you'll need a uni join on a socket.
Cheers fellas. Will have a think. My exhaust system is just bout stuffed so might change the whole lot while I'm at it maybe
You should seriously consider what you will be doing to the vehicle and whether you will add a turbo in years/months to come as that will require a different manifold and you'd probably go larger on the exhaust too. If that is in your sights you may be better off getting by for now and doing a complete change later.
