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!

Very knowledgable and well explained, thanks Dave, I was thinking of a k&n oem replacement but think I'll save the £40 if theres no benefits at all
