Re: 1600 diesel exhaust ok for 1Y?
It will work for now. If you want some cheap power, find a 8v double outlet or the "toilet bowl" type exhaust manifold [the one which uses the large spring clips to attach to the downpipe] . Then get a shop to weld up the rest to match the now larger exhaust diameter all the way to the tail pipe. Diesels benefit with as large an exhaust you can fit. No need to worry about back pressure like an gasoline engine. Then turn up the fuel screw a little and feel that extra power !

The stock exhaust will be fine. You will still notice the improvement in performance...
