@@boesmanliebenberg9518 That is not a DPF. It is a Catylitic converter. People get confused with the 2 and insist Catylitic converters are only found on petrol, but in our market it is not the case. DPF does not like our 50ppm Diesel...
Love the video. And was surprised to see the restriction in the pipe. So sizing it up a bit isn't a bad thing to do. Would you reckon that total air flow after turbo is better now? As likely the cat/DPF is what's restricting the most. Less flow resistance would mean less backpressure and better discharge of hot gasses. Which is another plus. Also glad to hear that sound levels hardly increased.
At least you have plenty of clearance to work under there, good job I understand why you changed it, seems logical, good to see you were not under any illusions the engine was going to sound better, as a 4cyl diesel will never sound good 😂😂
Would probably be hard to judge. Seen he also modified the intake with a snorkel. I have the same question myself. Seen that my car has just spent over a month for bottoming up. That said I am also looking into getting a washable drop-in air filter. Guess the DPF will be the restriction for real additional performance. But we can't drive illegally, can we?
Does your Ranger Raptors there not have problems with the transmission? Here where I live I've seen too many owners reporting their transmission overheats and then it wouldn't go into drive or even reverse.
Na mate won't be much difference in sound unless you remove the dpf which isn't really an option. Also a waste of money buying an exhaust for these or any ranger just get your local shop to s8 pipe to rear axle don't need any mufflers.
Unfortunately life has been a bit hectic as of late. I would like to start making videos again but right now there is no time frame of when that will happen
