Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Listen to that turbo whine

[bigtoy]

I purchased some back issues of TDR. I was looking through issue 26 page 68 showed how you coud easily remove the silencer ring on the inlet side of the turbo. you just remove the hose from the inlet side of the turbo. next remove the snap ring and the silencer comes right out! It sounds great! All that ring does is quiet turbo whistle. I guess some people find the whistle annoying. I remember reading somewhere that certain aftermarket air filter boxes let you here the turbo easier. I like listening to the ole holset doing its job!

Bigtoy if you want the turbo sound, you -really- need to look into a BHAF air filter and get rid of the stock restriction. Just did mine, wow what a difference. Turbo spools twice as quick, and the whine is more potent than ever... I got a Fleetguard AH19037 from fleetguardfilters.com for 42$



good luck

When I'm back home running around in the fields I switch to the BHAF and it quiets my turbo down. Go with a aFe or smiliar high flow filter and let her rip. The whistle gets loud especially if your next to a semi or a concrete wall.
