Thank you for that.
Its weird though cos i did a search and couldn't find any previous postings on this subject.

no worries blad.. if you do buy one, let me no how it goes as i never bought one myself..

I might have a look on ebay for one but defo wouldnt now buy one brand new, now i know that you gain nothing performance wise from them.
I just love the sound that they make.
I wonder how long though before got pee'd off with the noise, a bit like really loud exhaust, of which im not going to put on this car.

Beware the diesel Dvs on Ebay , we geta a lot of fall out from customers that buy on there with nothing but problems

Not being funny but its a diesel, why bother wasting money on an exhaust & certainly a dump valve when the exhaust will just make the already noisy engine noiser & more than likely not actually hear the dump valve "tssshh" sound your after! Spend your money on a remap if your after somethat that will actually add benefit to the car.

i agree with the dump valve bit, really not worth it for a derv.

as for exhaust, i have purely for looks. spent a lot of time looking and choosing specifically to get just that.

ended up with a SEBRING s/s for £235 fitted. (Same company as Remus i was led to believe)

not a lot of difference in performance, sounds no louder than standard, just a tad deeper on full chat.
