no nut there really isnt I went without the muffler and it sounds good. the only thing I want more of is the turbo whistle so I am going to put on a whicked wheel. Anything else you know of that will make it sound more like a jet airplane I really want that awsome sound. I need all the help I can get kinda new to all this diesel mod stuff.But I am hooked now

I had two guys stop me in Home Depot parking lot and asked, "what the hell kind of pipe is that?" I gave them all the info and this web site. One of the guys has a 4" w/ Magnaflow (?) muffler. He hates it. He said he expected more out of it. He wasn't aware there was a 5" system out there. They were asking questions about their trucks and I was responding like I knew something. I told them to come on here and ask away.

"Are you a mechanic?" "No, a carpenter. But I did spend some time on FTE last night."

With your 5" system and the WW you should be pretty loud.If u tow fairly heavy
wait till u hear the WW inside the cab with all windows up. WOW! I'm towing
a 9000lb TT camper and it's great!
the only thing louder is a BB turbo or the Van turbo setup from what i hear.

To be honest, Nut, I'm not bad mechanically. I can do most anything and if I can't, I'll ask how. But, since coming on to this site, I've learned so much about these trucks and these motors that the knowledge gained is amazing. I don't think I've ever been so confident with any other vehicle I've owned. And I've had a lot!

My wife gets pissed at me for being on here sometimes. I always remind her that the **** is only a few clicks away...

What intake do you have now? I have the 6637 "Kwik" and it's all turbo. They said the WW will be louder than the stock with this setup.

I would go with the ATS because it flows more air and prevents surge better than the WW.I hear it makes some interesting sounds during deceleration.Probably cools the turbo down faster too.
