Has anyone carried out the twin exhaust conversion? I think my exhaust is on the way out as when it regens there is a loud rattle which from reading other posts it will only get worse .
I'm obviously going to have to replace it but I'm considering the conversion but don't want to get a new exhaust now and find its a different one to that of the twin when I later decide to change.
Is it the same exhaust just the Y section is needed?
I know the main additions are the Y section, exhaust and heat shield but is there anything else? What would I go for? The 2.4 or the 3.2 and how do I even know if these are compatible with the 2.0?
got gus's exhaust on mine, not too noisy at all in fact probably not as noisy/bad as a knackerd tail pipe! it has a slightly deeper tone and looks far better:thumbs: Go for it.

I've had the same problem and in my research have found that you have 3 choices re replacing the silencer.
1) replace with an original Alfa silencer
2) get a twin box conversion from Ragazzon, Supersprint or Alfatuner (Alfatuner was a very reasonable price I must add).
3) replace the original silencer with a Supersprint one (the left box from their twin box conversion kit)
Cheapest is 1, then 3, then 2. Original box is about £300 and the Supersprint box only (stainless) is £345.
The Supersprint complete conversion is pretty dear in comparison to the Alfatuner one.
Supersprint don't say the left box will replace the original with existing pipework but 159_kid did and said it went straight on. I'll be able to confirm that in a few days hopefully.
If you just want to replace the silencer asap but leave the option for the twin conversion later then I think you either get a standard silencer now and then throw it away when you have the money for a complete Alfatuner system OR get the Supersprint silencer now and then add the splitter pipe plus right silencer later. Unless someone has found any other options?
The Alfa Tune exhaust I have on mine makes a really nice sound its not to intrusive for every day use but it makes itself known when you go for a play. The quality is outstanding too.
Diesels don't really get much louder when fitting a larger/straight through exhaust. My exhaust is probably as loud as you can get it for a diesel and its still less loud than my standard motorbike.
As stated above: sound gets a bit more bass and the quality is great with great value for money.
