my brother thinks it sounds like a tractor, i do not but just as the turbo starts to spool up it does sound like a dirty great diesel engine

ive taken another one today of it idling i cannot get to the bottom of its rough idle (now second vid)

bit of another update, built a baffle to fit in the end of the exhaust, mainly copied the one i have for the volvo but it worked better the opposite way round so thats how im going to use it, couldnt for the life of me drill into that exhaust so its ended up with a tag around to the out side and a jubliee clip welded on, as its only for starting on the drive and not for the road it will be ok like that,

diffuser 99% complete and some paint on it, test fitted with only 2 bolts so it droops in the middle in this pic

and it has come to my attention that even raised up nearly 3 inch for the mot it still wont get off the drive with it fitted so a slight re design will take place after i test just how much needs trimming
