New Exhaust system / DPF removal 1.6TDI

[Rookiereece]

If you've read the title you know how moronic i am, But I was wondering if anyone has experience with exhausts on the SE model. I really dislike having no tailpipes and I'm considering getting rid of the DPF because of the hassle involved. Thanks

Afaik getting rid of dpf will mean it fails the mot.

No idea about NI but in the UK it now has to pass a zero smoke test and have 'no evidence of DPF tampering', although you can apparently still pass a euro 5 or 6 test with the DPF removed...

Even if I were to keep the dpf would I be able to just get tail pipes, perhaps by getting rid of the back box or would I need a Whole New System, Cheers

Anything is possible. U can get back boxes removed with new tailpipes which will fit to your existing system or u can get a cat back system. Depends on budget and what u want to achieve really.

Do you mean something like this? https://forums.seatcupra.net/index....mper-spoiler-and-exhaust-modification.435964/ further down there is a standard SE bumper with a different rear diffuser.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm looking just with quad tailpipes

Are Backbox deletes illegal? I watched a Video were a bunch of lads essentially gutted the back box on a Fr and the Car was no louder .

Back in the day, before Diesel gate, I had a 2.0TDI SE Technolgy and wanted to do this:

Sports styling kit spoiler and rear bumper and paired with supersprint split twin exhaust..and swap the rims out for DRC DRS 17/18" ahh..how things change...

Hi Guys,
I wanted to ask you. I know this was posted a while ago but. I had a 2012 mk2 1.6tdi se COPA ecomotive. I put a chrome tip and it looked good now. But I recently bought a 2013 se tech and want to put a chrome tip on it. I know I guy and I’m yet to ask him (exhaust specialist) if he’s able to put one on and make it flush or does the bumper need A. A diffuser or B. Does it need cut abit the back bumper? I wanted to know what you guys think. Thanks in advance.
