Magnaflow makes a nice cat-back for the liberty CRD. It'll cost you a bit of coin, though. You'll get similar results by simply hacking off the reducing flange just after the CAT, and the reducer after the muffler, then splicing in a section of quality continuous-width (i.e. no pinches where it bends) tubing. Increased turbo-spool, slightly more grumble, better fuel economy, not much more overall noise.

I went with the Magnaflow cat-back system (15870) mostly because it was the easiest solution. It bolted in like a dream, and looks and sounds great.

Here is a pic of the magnaflow muffler and section of pipe a local shop used to replace the stock flange and muffler. The bends have no crimps and now it's true 2.5" the whole way. Back from where the rear of the stock muffler was is stock. $140 parts & labor. Wife can't notice a sound difference. I hear more turbo and feel less restriction.

I did same with v-force, which is a flowmaster 40 clone. I'm glad I did so with great results.
