I had to have a set custom made up for my TDV8 Disco 3, due to there being no off the shelf parts available

I imagine the FF will have to be a similar option...

Cheers Mikey

How much was it to get them made and did they make a difference?

This is the first set they have produced, and made up jigs so they can can reproduced on demand. What I paid for them wouldn't be what a retail customer would pay Wink

They may be a bit of distance away from you, but they were made for me by Pipe Dynamics in Leven, Fife. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone Thumbs Up

The L322 TDV8 has a pre-cat in each downpipe, then the cats, then silencer at the back. The pre-cats would be a Censored to replace, but the main cats are easily removed, and replaced with straight pipe, or a dummy cat (depending on local regs Whistle )

I'd love to tell you they made a huge difference, but the engine is still sat on the floor Big Cry

I actually got a new stainless exhaust fitted yesterday from powerflow and its crap. No noise difference and welding is shocking. So now I'm thinking decat and straight through exhaust. What you reckon? Just wanting bit more burble.

Having explored the upper limits of TDV6 and driveline, now I:

Want a TDV8
Need the practicality and 7 seats of a Disco 3
Financially too far into my D3 to get rid

Just hope to Censored it all comes together and works Laughing Embarassed

Aiming for another magazine feature with this one, same as my last Thumbs Up

Decat will give quicker turbo spool and more low end torque and a little more noise

Straight through will be VERY noisy. Had the same on my 2.7 TDV6. Sounded lovely, but very, very loud... Cool
