I found a few threads on it.

Click here to see it.

Here is another thread on it.

Once you have it out, you'll never want it back in.

It's no big deal just take the hose off from the air box to the turbo and you will see the silencer it is held in by a big snap ring. gently (with a small screwdriver) start working the snap rig out a little a a time just keep going around with the srewdriver working it towards you. it will finally come out and then you can remove the silencer ring. It only takes about 5 mins enjoy your new whistle.

Is my dealer going to have any problem with the ring removed??
should I drop it back in when I take it in for service??

It does sound great under power when you drive by one of those concrete walls on the highway!!

I don't think the dealer will care at all there is no reason for the silencer ring except for the customer convienience. No other application of the cummins uses a silencer ring. It is a D/C thing so put a big air box on her and let the whistle blow.
