Re: Defender rear tailpipe section
You don't need one as long as it's not too loud and with the turbo it won't be , piece of straight pipe and a couple of bends is the cheapest or a custom exhaust place , mine cost £40 in SS and runs from just in front of the axle over the axle turns 90 deg then up and another 90deg out of wing .
