I got my polo straight piped, enjoy the video :) Filming Equipment i use: . Camera: amzn.to/3ZnQFUA Tripod: amzn.to/3niyUbU Downpipe: www.darksidedevelopments.co.u... My Car: 2010 VW Polo 1.6 TDI ( 150bhp ) random_car_...
Hi mate got another question about the downpipe, seen a couple companies make downpipes for 1.6tdi but they are advertised as for a golf mk6 not a polo. Just wondering if you got anything information on wether that would fit the polo or not
Hi mate, are you sure its an exhaust leak? Ive got the same car, mine made that noise on idle then the injectors blew up 2 weeks later. Get it checked to be safe, could be the fuel pump letting debree into the injectors causing blockage.
Yeah, when I went to do my previous MOT they told me it was pretty much falling off and when I finally removed it there was a huge hole in it just before the dpf, at around 2k rpm it sounded like I had a custom Exhaust 🤣 But I have read that these cars have a problem at idle though, but I haven't gotten around to sorting that yet. But it won't hurt to change the fuel filter so I appreciate you letting me know about that.
Hi, I've got myself a 1.6tdi polo getting booked in for a remap with a dpf delete and the egr blanked off, for this sound did you get the cat deleted too or is this how it sounds when the cats still on?
I haven't run into any issues with that. But if you do lts a bit tedious but you could swap back to the old exhaust setup before you take it to its MOT then swap it back after.
From the CAT back was custom made ( just a straight pipe all the way back ) But I did buy the downpipe: www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/dpf-delete-downpipe-for-1-2-1-6-2-0-tdi-cr140-143-mk5-seat-ibiza-polo-audi-a1-and-skoda-fabia.html
hey mate, car sounds really great. Out of curiosity, what do you do when you need an MOT? Do you have to put the old system back in or do you just know a guy at the mot?
Thanks, when I last got my MOT I had only the downpipe on and it passed so I'll have to see if it will pass with the rest of it straight piped when I go for my next one. I just take it to a regular MOT place, I don't know a guy.
Sorry for the late reply, I couldn't find the receipt, turns out it was just stuck to the paper infront of it lol. I got an Egr blanking kit fitted the same time I got the downpipe done, so labour came to £400 on the dot
I've heard that with diesel's you have to remove the dpf to get it to make noise so I'm curious as to what a backbox delete would sound like to see if that's true or not
Did it fail MOT? I never really considered straight piping mine as I always thought they were always really strict with DPF deletes but now I’m starting to
It just depends on where you get your MOT done, your big name brands like Halfords etc will probably fail you but your local in town MOT places will mostlikely allow you. Or if you want to play it safe you can swap the exhaust over every year back to the stock one before the MOT
It's a legitimate MOT failure. Swapping it back to the DPF before your test is the way to do it rather than trying to get an MOT tester to risk his job for you.
Tbh it didn't feel any different in performance. I kept telling myself it feels slightly faster when accelerating but I think I was just saying that to make myself feel better 😅 but it makes the car sound nicer but in terms of performance it didn't really change much for me
@@RCS_716 I’m planning on getting it remapped once the downpipe is on, I’m trying to keep it quiet for now since the police here in Denmark are all over the car community right now😂 Decat downpipes, chiptuned diesels and especially DPF/ EGR deletes can get your car seized and scrapped by the police, unless you want to pay an authorized workshop to make your car standard again if you’re lucky 😂
I'm curious as to the gains you'll see after the remap with the downpipe installed. Wow, I didn't know it was that strict over there 😳 ngl I'd be too scared to do anything to my car.
@@stegtflaesk Jeg får monteret en 2,5 tommers rent rør samt decat downpipe på min polo 1,6 tdi her i dette måned. Skal nok lige vende tilbage når jeg har fundet ud af effektforøgelsen. :)
I bought them both on ebay, the front bumper is the WRC bumper and the rear is a GTI style bumper. The front bumper always pops up on ebay but I haven't seen the rear bumper ever since I bought mine
The rear is an unbranded dual exit gti style bumper that I found on ebay a while ago The front is a wrc bumper Sorry I can't be more descriptive or give you a specific name for the rear bumper but it was advertised as what I mentioned above.
