I had to go google to find out what a silencer ring is. No the 7.3 does not have that. The picture I saw looks like the Dodge uses a ported shroud on the turbo, and the ring covers the ports. There is no ring on the 7.3 turbo, and no ported housing unless it's been added as an aftermarket unit.
If you want to cut down on black smoke, try biodiesel. B20 will get rid of the black smoke on my farm tractor.

2004 F-350 6.0 SD
I have an 04 6.0 SD and am wondering if it has a turbo silencer, if so is there anyway to get rid of it so that the turbo whistle is louder ? Any info would be a huge help.

Remove or gut the CAT. It's still not a loud whistle, but it will make a noticeable difference.

You can also hack off the muffler and go with either a straight pipe or a Walker Big Truck Muffler.

Yes. Removing any factory installed emissions component from your vehicle is illegal unless you replace it with a new piece that meets the same standards. Some parts of the country just don't happen to inspect for these missing pieces, but some do. It's best to know what your local area does and does not check for.
