What did you get changed? Just catback? Non - res?

Diesel exhausts are not something I know an awful lot about but what little I've read, you need to go a bit deeper into it to get real noise benefit from the exhaust.

That's because that's a petrol mate - you will not be able to achieve that.

To be fair that sounds fine, but powervalve exhausts sound louder and better when actually driving, when the turbo is boosting nicely your exhaust will sound much better!
