latest feedback on this?

I'm keen on deleting the centre big box that compromises ground clearance.

Would also liek to have that big box otu of the way as it looks way to vulnerable for rocks.

The last 6 fill ups give me a average consumption of 8,63km/L with a roofrack on.

I did feel a slight increase in the power when going up hills and mountains - it does not kick back to 4th gear as easily as it did previously.

See the pics below. The center box, if done right, will not affect your ground clearance. I have the following free-flow boxes from the front going backwards:

Front - resonator
Center - large round box
Back - small oval box

I would think your fuel tank is more vulnerable, or my silencer is less vulnerable than yours - depending who fitted it and how.

As 4E said - the turbo on a diesel motor creates pulses that eliminates the loud harsh noise.

Hi guys
What i did was remove the CAT of my vehicle since the rest of the exhaust system is new, i can also feel and see a difference in power but have not checked fuel consumption as yet.

The reason why i removed the Cat is my Paj did not pull like it should and since i did the above its really pulling much better.

The Cat was also to my mind blocked since my Paj has 297000 km on.

Thanks
Wally

did you inspect the cat after removal?

My 3.2 cat was very clean upon removal at about 280'000km. (It did run on 2SO for about 15000km before removal so it may have played a part)
