just put the 03 turbo on my 05 truck. man does that thing whistle sounds like a freeking jet plane. taking the factory one off was the hardest part. the back bolt next to the y pipe was the hardest. it would be easier to completely remove the down pipe it would give you more room. was it worth it, /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif you betya. sounds great with the mbrp turbo back. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif

well not really any performance increase it does seem like it spools up quicker /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif. most people do it for the whistle of the turbo . it is alot louder /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif. yes i love it here in TN. it is a great place to live.
