Scorpion Land Rover Defender (90/110/130) 3.0 Diesel Rear Silencer Delete
Free up the sound and flow of your 3.0 diesel Defender with this rear silencer delete from Scorpion. It replaces the large rear box with a free-flowing section and smart twin tailpipes. Expect a deeper, fuller note without touching the DPF or SCR systems.
What it does
This rear section reduces back pressure and lets the straight-six breathe more easily. You will hear more turbo whistle and a richer tone under load. At a cruise it remains calm, though overall volume rises compared to stock.
- Deeper, more characterful exhaust note
- Lower back pressure for sharper throttle response
- Retains factory DPF and SCR – emissions hardware stays in place
- High-grade T304 stainless steel with mandrel-bent pipework
- Direct-fit design using factory mounting points
- Choice of premium Scorpion tailpipe styles
Tailpipe options
Pick the finish that suits your Defender:
Daytona – Polished (SKU: SLR002D)
Daytona – Ceramic Black (SKU: SLR002DC)
Dakar – Carbon Fibre (SKU: SLR002)
Build and materials
Made from T304 stainless steel for long-term durability. Precision bends maintain internal diameter through curves for smooth gas flow. Welded hangers line up with the OEM rubbers, so the system sits correctly under the bumper.
Performance and sound expectations
On its own, a rear silencer delete gives modest gains you can feel more than measure. Throttle pick-up improves and the engine feels less choked. Sound is noticeably deeper with more presence on start-up and acceleration.
Fitment
Fits popular Land Rover Defender 90, 110 and 130 3.0 diesel models (D200, D250, D300). Please use our vehicle lookup to confirm fitment, or check the Vehicle Fitment tab for full details.
Installation
Designed as a bolt-on replacement for the rear section. Most vehicles will install using the supplied clamps and existing hangers. Some models may require cutting the factory rear box for removal due to the one-piece OEM design. No ECU tuning is required and it should not trigger warning lights, as all sensors and emissions parts stay upstream.

Good to know
This part sits after the DPF and SCR, so emissions performance is unchanged. Noise levels increase; ensure your vehicle remains within local noise rules. If you regularly tow or do long motorway runs, consider whether the extra volume suits your use.
