turbo ?

I have a wicked wheel and the ats housing.It whistles nice on the turbo end but it not as much on the exhaust side. Would installing the factory turbo wheel change anything?

Thanks

Eric

With a stock turbo you will get less whistle. Try the foil delete mod. That will help with the sound, looks cleaner too. If you chane your intake to a 6637 then you'll have more sound also.

For more whistle out the tail pipe try a muffler delete.

Thanks guy's...I have done the foil delate,Also did the 6637 air filter and have 4" turbo back exhaust. standing beside it with it running not much to no whistle. with the muffler delate does it make that much of a differ. I know with my old truck (97 powerstroke) with a straight pipe you could hear the turbo wicked good out the tailpipe.I do hear alot of the chipping noise...

Thanks again for the info please keep it coming....

Whats up big poppa pump....

Good to see some more PA,ers jumping on board, stick around, your gonna love this place..Standing beside it the turbo isn't spooling up, just when you get on it you should hear the whistle real good. Heard some WW ATS housing combos and they sounded great. Don't know about the muffler delete, got a flow thru muffler but from what others have said, works for them...

Tip won't make a difference.

I took out my muffler last night. Got yelled at by the neighbor, and was flipped off on my way to work. Great way to start the day. Just don't know why.
