for me the biggest difference was a afe stage 2 intake. i can hear it whistle in the cab from about 1/2 psi on up with the silencer ring still in. Almost as loud as a 6.0

I have the s&b dry intake and silencer ring removed. Sounds very good but can be annoying while towing my boat.

Like said above, having an aFe Stage II Cold-Air Intake does well for that, which I have for sale!
But, if you get a BorgWarner turbo with a S&B intake, it REALLY whistles and I love it!
