Ok ok ok, i admit it i want the dump valve noise, i have read the thread on dump valve and apart from rhyso's short post it says nothing about the diesel engine, im not interested in performance i'd just like a genuine dump valve noise is this at all possible???
Cheers

Decat = more midrange torque and as you lift of the throttle you get an owl sound :afro:

Ditch excess weight such as the spare tyre and rear seats, go on a diet etc etc
Take off the EGR and inlet manifold and clean them up

And start driving around in nothing but a mankini :sick:
The owl noise sounds fun though, might start looking for a decat if they are cheapish :cool:

i'm guessing that a tdi wont fail mot if it aint got a cat? emmisions aint tested are they? sorry but know about petrol cat rules

Correct - just a smoke density test
Mind passed fine in January with a full turbo back system :smiley:

Rhyso - what system have you got? Possibly looking at getting a new turbo back and piperx panel filter. Would you notice the difference low/mid range with both? Sorry for thread hi-jack but still on the same topic!

Milltek Downpipe and Prospeed (local company) cat back
With just the downpipe I gained around 10bhp through the mid-range and about an extra 20lbs ft torque. That's with an R-Tech Stage 1 map

I dont get this owl noise! I want this owl noise despite having a decat and milltek exhaust.
-
so if i was too get a local company to take cat off and fit straight through pipe along with my egr delete u reackon it wouldpass? and is there a need for remap as mine hitting the 140k mark gonna smooth the air box and get decent pannel filter try see what i can get out of this 100pd without it explolding due to age and millage but if it too much to ask from th engine i will leave it.
