Hello, moving to a Macan S D V6 soon. I have been looking at videos on the internet like the supersprint video on youtube. I was wondering what kind of noise can I expect from the diesel version if I was to get a exhaust system. Is the supersprint video realistic? Or does anyone have other video examples.

The video I seen.



Thank you!

I see video at start says new front pipe replaces DPF. So fitting this system to a UK car would mean MOT failure?

Can always work around that.

I have the sports exhaust option and it sounds fantastic (for a diesel). So much so that I find myself turning the stereo down

Do you have a video by any chance?

I've got the sports exhaust too on my SD. if you floor it and get the revs up (2.5k plus) it really sounds nice and throaty.

It can drone a bit on the motorways so I tend to turn it off then but if you're giving it the beans it does sound really rather good.

Why buy a Diesel if you want noise from the exhaust? Get the petrol or drop a V8 in, that would be fun.

I stand up for the Diesel with Sports Exhaust. The advantages over the petrol up to three figure speeds are well documented.
