Remapping a 330D is always Epic
I'd love to hear what yours sounds like, I just had dual exits put on mine and it sounds little deeper if your giving it some right foot but it is alot more 'whoooshy' sounding like its not as restricted? I'm little worried that the DPF is really noticable in terms of loudness.. it needs to be fairly undected from the other half lol BTW on the map it says the DPF is undetected, so its been removed and mapped out and not just switched off? Cracking results though bud! |

Nice remap stats! Although I would say these are very simiar to Evolve (which keeps the DPF)
In fact, will this fail at MOT time with the new DPF rules?

Good idea! I really want to do it for the difference on MPG.. and if it comes with extra power then bonus but i'm plenty happy as it is now 290 hp/500ft lbs

Somebody posted up the new MOT rules and DPF removal is in their as a MOT failure.
Quick google found lots of confusion as rules can be a bit vague...Honest John said: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/askhj/an...remove-my-dpf-

It's not 'illegal' as HJ says. There is yet to be any law passed.
For MOT purposes it is quite vague but to be honest how easy is it to check a DPF is present and working correctly on these cars? I'd have though quite difficult but maybe I'm wrong. |

However you won't know if the internals of the DPF are present,and I don't believe MOT testers remove covers/aprons to make inspections. Most cars with DPF's go through a smoke test,which quite a few cars pass without a DPF. As for the updated MOT regs that came into force in Jan this year,I had read that if a car came from the factory with a part fitted,if that part was subsequently removed it would automatically fail the test. So Beemers with a DPF/Cat/C that's gone AWOL would fail. I've since heard the above only applies to cars from a 58 plate onwards,but in honesty the rules seem so vague I'm not sure what's right and whats wrong |

That's what I mean though mate its hard to see as they can't start taking things off to see. I've no clue where the dpf sits and you just clarified that for me ta.
