Default Silencer Ring????

I see that some guys are talking about pulling the silencer ring out of the inlet of the turbo, what does that actually do for performance?

Doesn't really do anything for performance, just make the turbo whistle more.
Add a BHAF and it increases the whistle.

Big Honkin Air Filter. You should be able to put it in the search and read all about it.

Thanks for the info, not up to speed on some of the lingo around here yet, still a newmie in a roundabout way. Do have a BHAF already, an S&B.

I think I will give it a try, as long as it doesn't get too annoying pulling the toy hauler to the dunes.

You will enjoy it. It's not like you cant talk over it, but it is noticeable.
