I've got an issue.. I've been told multiple things by multiple companies about exhausts for my car

As it's a tdi, if I get a cat back I've been told after a while it'll sound rubbish or it'll get clogged from carbon.. 

Been told to get a decat but then said it'll be a dpf delete which means I need a remap too (I do want a bluefin and if anyone has done that, is it worth it?) 

can anyone help??? I'm feeling just to leave it as I don't want problems accuring

    decat and dpf delete would be illegal.

    No reason you can't have a cat back, if the standard exhaust sounds the same after continued use, why can't a well designed custom one?

    I know people on here have had custom exhausts on the TDCi's...

    So it is worth just going for a cat back then, I'm not really looking to go on the illegal side of things rather keep her nice and clean 

    I'll have to have a look to see what others tdcis sounds like with a custom! Thanks for your help though
