silencer ring
 
Hey-
I notice a lot of you have removed your silencer ring. Does this help airflow and performance any, or just sound cooler?

It sounds a lot cooler, especially if you have a aftermarket air filter. Then you can really hear your turbo sing. And it doesn't do any thing to performance...

I removed my silencer ring a few years back....the first trip I took across Lookout Pass going eastbound into Montana drove me nuts. I replaced it immediately...its still there.

On the flats, it didn't bother me.

Does anyone have an extra laying around they want to get rid of? This turbo sounds like a fog horn! My old 94 never made this much noise. Oh well. If anyone does, let me know...I buy it off ya. Take Care all.
