I would have to cut the body work which makes me uneasy with this mod.
Edit: CO poisoning isn't a problem on diesels unless they are way out of tune. Fumes wouldn't getting into the passenger compartment wouldn't be a problem anyway

The base pressure behind the 300 will essentially be at the same pressure as where the air separates.If the side tailpipe is within 6-inches of the tail,there may be little Delta-P between the two locations.Also,the side flow is dilluting the exhaust stream through mixing,which wouldn't necessarily occur behind the car,making it nastier for following motorists.
