It is louder without the silencer ring. The more the Smarty is turned up, the more noticable it is. Still not very loud in my opinion. I am going to build my *****'s whistler intake soon and then it should scream.

On the 7.3s make sure you have the Wicked wheel if you want it loud. I am pretty sure they came on the early 99s. You can buy them for $100 otherwise.

Ring removal

So I removed the ring, and now my boost gauge on my Edge CTS displays "0" for boost pressure. Could I have the turbo housing misaligned?

You air filter must be plugged lol.


As far as the boost gauge reading 0, I'd be double checking all the wiring that you have disconnected when you was removing the intake and turbo

with only 5,000 miles on it, I doubt it's a clogged air filter. I unhooked 2 harnesses from the air intake, but reconnected them once it was back together. I drove it, and seems to lag now a bit. It makes me really nervous...

got_soot was right. My alignment dowel on the turbo housing wasn't lined up. Fixed that, and now it makes plenty of boost!
will I see an increase/decrease in performance from this mod? If I am not making as much, I'll put the silencer ring back in. I already polished it so the air would flow better. Let me know your guys experience with this mod. I saw on some other posts that you could lose 10hp, but I would like to confirm or discredit that if possible.
