turbo whine

any ideas on how to make turbo whine louder on a 04 6.0 had the banks turbo back exhaust on it but now have a magnaflow muffler and deleted the cat. talked to a rep at RBP and he said they sell a muffler that spirals the exhaust out which in turn makes the turbo whine louder. anyone know if this is true?

Hmm...
banks must have a resonator in the down pipe that kills the whine...
because my turbo back exhaust WITH the cat still in sounds like an f-15 at times....

really like the way it spools up for a second when I hit the remote starter....
(only time I REALLY get to hear it )

it does have a 4" flow thru muffler though which must let some of the "whine" go thru...

I checked my down pipe. I have the one from banks that has no resonator. Banks told me the 03 6.0 down pipe from banks comes with a resonator but the 04 6.0 does not.
