Removing resignator?

Goldigger04 · #1 (**permalink**) 03-07-2012, 03:44 PM

I have an 04 6.0, and deleted my cat and muffler about 20 minutes after purchase. My truck has a nice sound to it if I must say so myself. I was getting things together to do my EGR delete and had a questionable part on my rig. From looking around I think I have narrowed it down to a resignator? From everything I find, they are only on the 03's? right or wrong? I have no clue. I love my turbo whistle sound, and after the years of having the same set up, the hunger for more has hit me. Would removing the resignator (if that is what it really is) A.) make the turbo whistle more? B.) have any negative effects? I have had my fair share of 7.3's, and the 6.0 is a whole new adventure.

Resonator and 1. yes. 2. no. You may have an 03 motor/turbo, I've only read of them coming on o3 MY.

O yea itll make it whistle more if you have a 03 turbo. It made a big diff on my truck and my buddys.

Thanks. I have now got to find a place willing to take it off for me. How do I know if I have the 03 turbo or not? I will defintely have it removed now.
