TANK 300 CALIBRE Cat Back Exhaust From DASH OffRoad + ECU Tune 💯💯💯

We’re really starting to love the GWM TANK 300, but it has one problem. It doesn’t have a voice! In this video we fit up the DASH CALIBRE cat back exhaust and do a pre and post Dyno run. Once we get the sound right, then it’s time to wind up the boost and see how far we can go.

[@jmpersonal2402]

The more I watch, the more I am tempted.... and all reviews so far seem most supportive.

[@wbyoung4280]

The automobile emission standard required by China is CN6B, roughly equivalent to the EURO7 standard. To meet this standard, some gasoline engines have to install a DPF like a diesel engine. In Australia, a lot of unnecessary equipment can actually be removed and meet the EURO5 standard.

[@jamesriley7604]

It can't be removed. You're still not allowed to tamper with emissions control devices.

[@timofey24]

Will you get a fine if police checks it?

[@jamesriley7604]

@@timofey24 you'd get a fine if you got caught some how. Police wouldn't have a clue. They'd have to have reasonable suspicion to send you to have it checked. Doesn't change the law though.

That extra torque will be great when 4w driving, great video Dave, love the exhaust sound..👍

[@IBOO57]

Thats awesome love that your modding these things and seeing whats possible.

[@marcusgeorge1825]

You beat me with your explanation as it’s exactly what I was thinking whilst watching this regarding Chinas new emissions regulations. Also, having read the comments of others all I will say about exhaust mods is when was the last time you ever witnessed a Harley Davidson being pulled over by the police or any government agency for being too load? As the exhaust mod is the first thing done to these bikes as stock, you can’t really hear them. Plus, the factory warranty isn’t diminished.

[@bahtiyarshumaev2717]

At that time I wanted to tell you to do a chip tuning, but this way is even better! Happy for you. I watch your videos from Kazakhstan) I don’t know English but it doesn’t bother me)) I will wait for your videos, good luck!

[@oricampo203]

That's awesome! I can't wait to get one.

Now it looks and sounds like a proper tank.

[@honestjohn6222]

Really enjoying your videos

[@smokin4x45]

Wow, those Nm gains are very good, specially with only a 3pound increase. Maybe once it’s all done you should have it tuned out to the limits of the injectors and see what it does then… Great vids 💪🏼

[@user-ez9rw5lm5w]

The exhaust sound is nice, I like it very much.

[@DASHOffRoad]

Glad you like it!

Nice. Thanks for sharing 👍

Tank is good. Good power. And look solid underneath

[@Athrunwong]

Honestly it looks like soviet era kind of stuff, simple but make it durable.

[@NinjaDeathTeddy]

Loving your videos. I was set on a Jimny but now thinking about the Tank as my first car and these kinda vids are keeping my excitement up. How expensive / how long would it take to get a mechanic to install an exchaust like that ? And whats the approx cost of the exhaust itself ?

[@onecrabbyman]

Great vids thanks mate, no mucking around, to the point, good and bad. That factory exhaust looked stainless, was it? Did see one vid of the Tank with a broken steering part, possibly arm or joint causing front wheels to steer opposite to each other. Don’t know the circumstances though. Anyway pretty impressive so far👍🏼

[@sinclap2]

Haha, that’s awesome!

[@TheTripleDubya]

I was expecting more driving impressions with the extra oomph, still a great vid.

[@marke5756]

Nice vid mate - almost have the better half coming around to buying one of these…. A GVM increase will make a huge difference and probably sway the masses. Now over to you 😉. Cheers

Savage tech is a bit jealous at your numbers I think, in there comments they are saying you guys are BOOST SPIKING lol keep up the great work.

[@DASHOffRoad]

I didn’t take it that way. Our numbers were very similar, I think we both proved these cars respond well to a good flowing exhaust and tune 💯💯💯

[@gabrielhan9676]

Absolutely love your videos. Mods and tuning is illegal here in China. People do it nevertheless. One thing they found is that you may need to upgrade the radiator after tuning. The stock one isn’t all that accommodating.

[@DASHOffRoad]

Thanks for that tip, I’ll be sure to keep an eye on engine temps 👌

[@scottcruse8644]

Loving this series of videos mate Curious how you went about the ECU tune, was it just tapping into the factory system or by the use of a piggyback ?

[@DASHOffRoad]

Straight into the factory system 🙌

[@investor2482]

Pretty new to modified cars but are you worried about voiding warranty after putting a tune on it? cant see it affecting the engines life span?

[@davesieber2095]

If I get these modifications to my tank 300 would I still have factory warranty??

[@craigmercovich326]

Hi Dave , have you had a oppourtunity to track the fuel economy , before and after the mods and tune. Keep up the great work.

[@DASHOffRoad]

I only have 2,000km on it so probably a bit early to say

[@xanderzaccone5431]

Mate can you show us what the diff and transmission oil looks like? Interested to see how much metal you pull out?

[@zman4116]

Other than when you thrash it, whats average fuel consumption

[@ewrergeheh]

Hello from across the ditch! Looking at a Tank 300 Ultra Hybrid right now, do you think similar modifications and ECU tuning would be possible on the Hybrid model? I noted the big space for the battery pack and hybrid drivetrain so assume that would interfere with any existing straight pipe kits for the petrol version. But if you leave the hybrid bits alone and just fiddled with the ICE components, similar power increases would theoretically be possible right??

[@DASHOffRoad]

I’m really not sure sorry

[@alextooms529]

Very. I have enjoying these posts. Have had to start seriously considering buying one. Is the lane keep as bad as everyone says it is?

[@DASHOffRoad]

Nah, just turn it off

[@garynew9637]

What's wrong with Mark 1 eyeball?

[@ianweal3081]

Dave, just curious how do you think the auto box will stand up to the extra oomp. Advise what your thoughts are on this one. I'm soo impressed by the GWM Tank. GWM on a whole actually.

[@DASHOffRoad]

I think it’s impossible to say at this point. We will have to keep an eye on it

[@rigstig]

The tank 300s use a ZF8HP auto trans which is the same gearbox used on performance cars like the BMW M3. Alfa Giulia QV. Dodge hellcat and more. Those cars probably make 3x the power so yeah I think it's safe to say the gearbox is barely breaking a sweat at the power levels of a tuned 2.0T 😂😂

[@jk66]

The JEEP Ecodiesel has the same box and makes factory 18oKw and 575Nm. They are regularly tuned to 800Nm so if box internals are the same should be all good@@rigstig
