People buy diesel cars because the running costs are lower, less maintenance and are economical; however, the only downside to any diesel car owner is the sound the vehicle makes. In most diesel vehicles, the sound of the engine overpowers the sound emitted through the exhaust system; this does not excite the drivers and makes the journey all the duller and more uninspiring.

We receive more diesel engine enquiries where people think that just by changing the exhaust, they can make the vehicle sound louder and more exciting to drive, this is so far from the truth. In a small engine diesel vehicle, even if a straight-through exhaust was built, it will not sound any different, and in larger diesel engines installing a straight-through exhaust system you may hear the turbo if fitted whistling, that’s it.

There are certain things we can do to enhance the sound of a diesel engine, but a lot of it would determine once we have had a visual inspection. There is one fantastic solution for diesel engines which makes the vehicle sound like a high-powered petrol V8 — having installed over 50 of these units with exceptional results.
