2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission help a frend with TURBO whine wants more

[CHROME~TURBO]

:-{} I have a friend with no PC so he asked me to do a post for him , if anyone has any answer?

Oo. He has a 99 RAM 24 valve with some eng mod's. He has taken the turbo ring out. But wants to know if there is anyway to make the turbo WHINE louder? He also has the after market air filter. He said all seems to work fine but has seen others that really WHINE and he wants to sound the same. Thanks and I will pass on any help.

Cut a 4" hole in the firewall behind the filter as you can see in this picture.

He needs to ditch the stock airbox if he really wants to hear it. (I`m assuming by aftermarket filter you're talking about a drop in K&N) I recommend a BHAF, Fleetguard pn# AH19037. (available at www.fleetguardfilters.com) Also gota isolate the airbox studs from piercing the filter, I used a piece of 1x3 furring strip. offsets it nicely. fostertruck.com sells a SS heatshield that makes the turbo run better and keeps the heat off other things, including the filter.



havent heard of the 4" hole in the firewall, quite an idea



good luck

Snap the corner of a blade off the turbocharger's compressor impeller. That will give him some noise - briefly, anyway!!

what does he have for exhaust. if it is stock then going to a full 4" system will make it whine more.

AFE stage 2 makes a decent amount of noise.

Yeah I've got a like new AFE Stage 1 for sale in the classifieds. I struggle to hear everyday conversations but that turbo whistle with the AFE was too much for me. Have your friend contact me. NOISE FOR SALE!

Still using the stock filter and box, no silencer ring, 4" Rips exhaust with muffler. Plenty of turbo whine for me.
