Hey bud I didn’t, they where very heavy and the new pipe was super light so aswel as free flowing it’s save a few pounds. Thanks Greg 👍

Thank you Patrick really appreciate the kind words 🙏👍👍

Thanks Christina 🙏 I used to say the same to my older son all the time 😊

Ah man I missed the perfect opportunity to say that 🙈 next time. Thanks bud 👍

Hey bud ah that’s awesome and a very good price 👍 I love mine hope you enjoy yours. Appreciate the comment 🙏

Thank you sir appreciate that 👍

Thank you mate appreciate that 👍

Haha thank you sir 👍 didn’t want to sound to rude for the people that have shinney exhausts that watch the channel 👍

For me, Some of the best VW conversion content on KZfaq. First came across Nathan's channel when only 1k subs but it's growing rapidly and he deserves it 👏

Thank you appreciate that 👍👍

Thank you mate appreciate that 🙏👍

Thank you mate really appreciate that 🙏👍

Hey Joey I keep forgetting I’ll hang it next to the ramp from now on so I don’t forget 👍👍

Thanks Bradley appreciate that 👍

Depends on the age of the van. Can't recall the date off hand but I think it's September 2009 but that's a guess but before that date they are not a requirement whatever the date is

I never knew that they did work, new bulb needed well spotted thank you 👍

Haha good one Sean I nearly used a pin like that, thanks mate 👍

Hey mark thank you 👍 so when painting something we always try to put to much on aiming for that perfect shine right out the box but it’s really hard to get the finish you desire, in my opinion unless your super skilled at the job it’s better to put multiple thinner coats on. Once dried a little tickle with 2000 grit wet sand paper on the flat areas then a buff and they look perfect. I always say I’d rather have 98% finish then buff the rest 👍 rather than 110% and have runs

@@YTDTETV Thank you Nathan I can see the logic in that , I'm painting my lwb high top in panels and above the windscreen was a nightmare to reach but I'll get there and hopefully it will turn out nice , keep up the great videos I look forward to them , thank you for your time.

@@mark7218 no problem at all 👍 all the best with the project I’m sure you’ll do a good job 👍 thank you Ps slight edit, my project after this one is the T5 and there’s loads of bodywork videos on that including the re paint

@@YTDTETV I've seen most of your videos Nathan, I'm up to the latest one with the exhaust, I just like going back on the videos and watching them again.

Thanks Brian appreciate that mate 👍

Hey bud thank you and you’ve taken the time to comment so the least I can do is reply.. My old 1.9 pd had done 280k mileage and the head gasket had gone but after fitting a new engine I stripped it down to find the block was still in such good condition I literally could have re used it without worry so the bottom ends are super strong and I don’t think they need looking at. The heads on the other hand do need looking after, they like to wear camshafts so while building an engine you might aswel fit a new cam, tappets and cam bearing etc, they always like new injector seals so may aswel while you there and always use new injector bolts. The turbos are also known for letting go and for the price of a replacement turbo nowadays I’d stick one on to. That’s a standard setup but would run 180-200 hp all day long for many years. Proper 5 40w pd oil and filter every 10k miles and you’ll have a super reliable engine. Let me know if I can give anymore info. Thanks bud 👍

​@@YTDTETVNice one, thanks Nathan! Tis appreciated greatly. I really enjoyed the T5 build series when you had your lump apart and you were going over the head/block details that's what made me ask and decide to do a 130. I love the idea of having one engine/platform to fully learn and understand inside and out. Anyhoo I'll not waffle longer... Thanks once again 🙌🙏

I did think that actually but didn’t have any, the rough looking pipe would look better to 👍

Ah I missed an opportunity to say that 😆 thanks mate 🙏👍

Thanks Michael 👍

Thank you 👍 I’m happy glad you lot approve, I like my diesel engines to breath abit better I feel it helps against carbon build up etc they seem to run sweeter. I’ve seen a t6 with a shorter pipe actually, do you ever smell fumes in the cab? I guess not as Vw know what they are doing 👍

Same as Sprinter and fwd Vito's, with the exhaust ending before the rear axle. Also no exhaust gas in the inside.

@@materialprufer1024 I guess it’s a cost cutting thing if it works fine and isn’t loud then why waste time effort and money making the exhaust the full length 👍

@@YTDTETV No fumes in the cab at all which surprised me really. If you look at the aluminium heat shields opposite the fuel tank there’s a small cut out into the area of the exhaust. That’s where the factory diesel heater exhaust is fitted, nice and handy when you’re fitting yourself a diesel heater.

@@dieselbushcraft1299 I have seen many vans with half an exhaust finish half way up so I guess it works 🤷, ah that’s good 👍 my T5 didn’t have that.

Ye the vnt actuator on the turbo 👍

​@@YTDTETV Fancy doing a video on it how to set it up vnt a make it wisel and a bit more power with out remapping the ecu?

Hey Ragnar yet I put some axle stands under the ramp legs as I’m only using 2. Definitely don’t want that squishing me to the workshop floor 🙈

Thanks Phillip 🙏 I moan about making exhausts but I do enjoy them 👍
