i think by reading some of the posts under the video, some guy says that Ford changed the (turbo flywheel) <--prob wrong name, said due to being so loud.

I think the early 99's had a Wicked Wheel type turbo wheel... and were changed to be quieter...

i believe thats the 03-04 variable vane turbo?, alot louder and alot more problems from what people have told me. sounds good though, i'd buy one.

The Granny has the same whistle and I agree it is a sweet sound. I love it when you pull in somewhere and heads turn to see where that jet engine sound is coming from.
