Louder Turbo Whistle

[ben315vz]

Hey guys,

Does anyone how to make the whistle of the turbo louder? (Turbo Diesel).

Reason I ask, today I drove a 2011 Mitsubishi Triton Turbo Diesel, everytime I let go of the accelerator I could hear the turbo and I liked the sound of it.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Ben

Remove intake baffles.

Remove intake baffles.

The intake baffles, are the before or after the turbo?

Before. You want to make the flow from the air box to the turbo as unrestricted as possible. I know if I take the air filter off the SS it sounds like a jet's landing next to me.

Ok great! I will take a look and see where the baffles are and remove them, then see how that goes. Thanks for your help

Exhaust helps to. High flow dump high flow cat etc.

Yeah I was going to get the exhaust done later on when the warranty has run out (next year), but I didn't know it made a difference the the sound of the turbo.

More flow more whistle. That's what happened with my skyline after I put the dump pipe on it and also the patrol.

Ok sweet, so you think a 3 inch exhaust will be alright? I also don't want to lose any power/torque.

There seems to be a wide range of exhaust chip combos out there for them. Might have to search the colorado forums on which way to go. NAAF might be able to help as well.
