I was getting some #2, and the F-250 in front of me started up, and it sounded normal for a bout two seconds, when I heard a high pitched whistling sound, and whe nhe got on it to pull away, it got real high pitched, almost like a Cat turbo. Any idea what this guy might've had?

 

Was it a 7.3 or 6oh. The 6oh turbos have that high pitched sound.

 

Yeah, if it's a 6.0 (especially an early one), it will whistle like a mad chief...personnaly, the if that whistle was possible on a 7.3, I'd be all over it.

I'm pretty sure it was a 7.3- this thing sounded like nothing I've ever heard before. Definately not stock!!

 

Maybe an ATS with WW?

 

I'd say mine whistles considerably more than stock. Now is it the intake, the exhaust, the turbo . . . a combo? But I don't think a turbo afficionado would mistake it for a 6.0. That is definately a higher pitch. My electrician has one opened up and man you always know when he shows up on the job.

 

wow nice truck sound ,wish my 99 sounded like that

 

mine has a wicked whistle with in the exhaust note on take off,
ive only heard those that sound like mine on the street, havent heard anything louder yet.

 

I did the wicked Wheel and Foil Delete and new intercooler boots, I went to barely hearing the Whistle to an awesome Jet engine sound from about 9 LBS boost up. Yeaaaaa. And a definante power improvement.

 

My TN sounds like a CAT turbo

 

Hey strokin- It did sound kinda like that- real high pitched, but it was definately a 7.3- either way I love a turbo sound on a PSD

 

I might buy a 6.0 if I could get that sound. From what I've read, he's had good luck with that truck.

 

A stock 7.3L with the just muffler deleted and a 3" pipe welded in it's place sounds awsome. About 2-3 seconds after it starts, the turbo spools a bit and starts whining and after it shuts down it whines for about 4 seconds or so. I wish I had a sound bite.

After shutting my warm engine down, i can hear the turbine spooling down for about 20 seconds in the stacks, i can even hear the intake howl for a few seconds if i am at the front.

If you could GUARANTEE me a trouble-free modified 6.0 engine (same level of mods as mine), i would gladly take a 05+ truck over mine any day. But reliability is the issue. I would love to have my truck sound like that clip, plus the turbo whissellll
