Here's a vid of my truck earlier this year. I have tons of mods, but when I gutted my EBPV this sound followed. It was NEVER this loud till I did that.

You could probably shove some freeze plugs in there, but cody welded his up IIRC. i want to take the butterfly out of mine, but there is just no point b/c i don't want this dumb turbo anymore... haha.

taking the butterfly out definitely made a big sound difference on codys truck. thing sounds wicked now!!! haha

I took the EBPV housing off the turbo and ground down the boss' that held the butterfly shaft. I made it look like it was never there. Then I welded the holes closed and ground down the welds where it's nice ans smooth inside and out. But I believe you can just use a 5/8 freeze plug. You'll only need one if you don't knock the top one out. But I don't know how that will affect the sound. Good luck to you man.

Man Cody I love your truck, especially that hood. There are some times that I hate my red paint cuz it so dam expensive. I've got 2 different quotes that were each over $1000 to paint hood and blend color into fenders and that's including the price ofthe hood. And I think my truck coo's too but I k ow for a a fact that it woooahhh's real loud when the womens sittin up front lol.
