Sounds pretty good. You can definitely hear that turbo singing.

the video does NOT do it justice, the wind was nasty up here and it really took away from the surging whistle. sounded like one of the smokin' tractors at the truck pulls

I know what ya mean c00n. I lost the whistle with the new turbo, however mine sounds like a big block with a monster cam for the first 5 minutes until it smoothes out.

Yesterday when I started mine up I gave it a little fuel after idling for a couple min and it would keep romp 1200 to 1500. It sounded amazing. With mine it won't romp all the time, but when it does it pretty hard.

I'd go out and take a vid of mine since I finally got new battery for my camera but I think my truck would tell me to ... off because it's -13 out and shes not plugged in.
