03' Turbo question

Why did Ford do away with the "screaming" 03' turbo?? Does anybody know the answer?

not sure of the real reason, but i think the first 6.0 turbos had some issues so they changed something around which made em quieter.

Noise, and something to do with controling the airflow differently I believe. They tried a 13 vane in the 04s, then the 15 in 05 and up.
