Induction kits on HDi's don't really add that much in my view.
The exhaust gets you a better noise on a diesel... you get the good bits of the noise a diesel makes, rather than the bad bits...
A petrol with induction kit sounds better because it's throttled, so you get that dynamic audio as you go to full throttle. On a diesel it just sounds the same all the time...
Wheras the exhaust sound on a diesel is very much controlled by the throttle (and thus fuelling), and thus you get the enjoyable dynamic sound you really want!
