PIPES

Probably been asked but what difference does a straight through centre exhaust pipe have?

Not sure if this is a wind up. It's straight through, just a bit of tube with flanges and hangers, etc.

Unless your centre muffler is "cactus", it's a waste of time, and may render your vehicle unroadworthy, depending on your laws, the droning noise inside the vehicle will send you nuts on a long drive and all this for no, nill, nada, nought performance gain, but by all means give it a go if you must.
Law of physics, "percieved performance increases proportionally to the amount of noise emitted from exhaust".

Bought one pick it up today

All I can recall for sure is the bolts are 8mm dia, maybe 60mm long, but not absolutely sure about length, 3 bolts per flange, and that is on my 300Tdi.

Cheers gazbo

Bought some m8 bolts sprayed abit plus gas on old ones popped right off 30 mins start to finish. It does sound nice
