lol i was gona add some headers to my truck but when i went to check on prics they told me it was very hard to put em on do to the turbo getting on the way, plus it wouldent make much a difference if it had headers or not with a turbo engine so i just went and changed its muffler i made it coustum made, still on the same pipes and evrything

it does help the engine when accelerating and on minimum the sound is the same as stock, a lil rumble but thats all. but when on road and when i hit the 1500 rpm the turbo starts to work and i can really feel the sound :)

hope ill upload a vid of the new sound, casue pics wouldnt help as they look stock :P

me too your truck is sweet why didnt you go bigger tubing it would of hoped the turbo spool faster and cant you turn up your stock boost a little to make some more power?

Copy the "lfzl0xsr_JI" after the '=' in the link. Then when you go to make a new post click the YouTube button on the top right and paste the "lfzl0xsr_JI" between the [YOUTUBE][//YOUTUBE]
