turbo whistle and a little smoke vid

[93_444idi]

took it a while back, figured id post. camera doesnt do justice for the turbo whistle but that's always the case. i didnt bother editing so you get to listen to me climb in and out of the truck. i have to say i'm jealous of the turbo on my brothers idi though. those ball-bearing turbos have that slow wind-down after you shut the truck off that's just awsome.

I would love to watch the vid but i have dial up internet.

Do you have the upgraded exhaust housing on the turbo or the factory set up?

 

[MidnightBlade]

Kinda like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faMfGo4KRiI&feature=related

What kind of turbo does your brother have?

 

[93_444idi]

his is an aurora 2k, which if i'm not mistaken is a ball bearing turbo. all i know is you can turn it off and can still hear it spooling down a little after you get out of the truck. he does have stacks, but i dont think that'd affect the duration of the spool-down. when i get a bigger comp wheel on mine i'm gonna replace the sleeves and clean the turbine wheel. maybe that'll help.


and no, mine just has the factory exhaust housing/elbow and a 3" downpipe from banks

When I turn mine off I hear what sound like alot of air going out of the Exhaust and turbo, not much of a whistle

No Video. All I get is my picture from Facebook and make a comment. Wierd.

That turbo winding down after shut down, has no oil pressure to the bearings, not good I think. Had a Detroit Diesel with a turbo and rigged an after shut down oiler on it to keep the bearings from coking up.

How many pounds of boost are you running on your setup? Also, what do you think you are making powerwise?

 

[91dirtydiesel]

Power wise at the tires? Or crank? With 410 gears and 38/15.5 wide tires I can chirp them on dry pavement. (try not to at 550$ per tire) but I have wastegate set to 12psi

I absolutely love your guys whistle. Are they factory turbos or aftermarket? I have a first gen banks and you really have to listen for any whistle.
