Presumably though, there's going to be a nice cottage industry for someone to cut DPF's open, clean out and zip them back up.
Any performance workshop who does modern diesels will be able to turn off DPF functions if they've got control over the ECU to do tuning etc. Then its just a matter of cutting it out and putting a new section of pipe in, or doing the whole exhaust while you're there lol.

While you're there run her up on the dyno and make some touch ups
