I don't know how to link to my own post on the other thread so... I'll quote myself :rotflmao

Video of engine running and turbo with its whistle :sly

I haven't welded the downpipe to the exhaust yet. So its pretty free-flowing with just 4" intake and downpipe on the other end. I'm sure the ceramic coating helps spool time and boost too :D

If ya want whistle, put one of these mufflers on, you can hear the whistle a block away, depending on which direction it's installed, one way it whistle's loud, other way it's kind of quite. The whole muffler part is only about a foot long, about 8" diameter. Those little cups inside make the whistle. That's on my PSD 3-1/2" exhaust.

intentionally nicking blades just poses a risk to damaging the turbo.

having to have whistle sound if you don't have it and you do have have decent boost is just being a big part of the PEN 15 crowd IMHO...

Lol ha ha ha. I'm just wondering if my lack of whistle is due to having the stock 093 exhaust housing and not the upgraded one from ats? I have the 3" outlet and dp, just not the larger exhaust housing
