mot fail and plug change

Hi volvo failed mot on exhaust no surprise there. Also front parking lights stupid 4w bulbs that are masked by dipped beam and misfitted head light bulb. Sorted lights on monday having new centre pipe fitted as all nuts corroded beyond use. Changed spark plugs from oem to ngk iridum engine feels smoother and pulls from lower in rev range 1300 instead of 1500 welcome side effect is now exhaust is very quiet must be to do with burn inside cylinders. Coasting is better as i can now go further with no throttle 1/4 mile in 5th before reaching stall point. Interesting to see if mpg improves with plugs and exhaust next tank will give me definate answer.
