sounds nice dude ive got a 1997 powerstroke with a 7.3 and it sounds exactly the same when i unhook the cat. fuckin awesome you should post more videos on this truck
Right now I dont have gauges but if I had to guess maybe 400- 500 all I did was start it up and rev it a bit I didnt go over 2300 rpms. Currently Im putting on a new performance turbo, 140v IDM, Banks intercooler, & 3" plenums. Future upgrades are stage one injectors, Tony Wildman chip and methanol injection.
The whole truck is perfectly straight and drivable. She sure does fly. The only thing that is messed up is the skid plate that covers the transfer case, I was parking it during a storm on the edge of road and it slid hitting rock denting it.
Yes, But if you have a straight through muffler that isnt too big it will still whistle but not as much. Taking off the cat makes it whistle soo mcuh more alone.
Its the closest thing to a 4" from the turbo possible. These trucks exhaust was made for fitment the stock pipe was an ovaled 3" by 2.5" which was snaked all over leaving barely room for abigger one. It is 3" off the turbo and 3.5" when it passes the firewall and is 4" from the transmission back. In order to fit this downpipe in I had to bash in the the firewall. It sure is a tight fit.
yo dude what pipe are you running. sounds almost like mine. im running magaflow but my cuz has mbrp im thinking of switching to those in duals they sound so bad ass???
Im running a ceramic coated down pipe from TymarPerformance dot com, they have the largest down pipe possible for these old trucks 3-4". The rest is a diamond eye 4" exhaust, now I have a mbrp muffler on it though, still sounds good! just different tone.
You can't tear up the turbo with a stright pipe. The reduction in backpressure might raise the turbo rpms slightly, but certainly not enough to "tear it up"...
that poor turbo is cooking now.

Is that truck even driveable. Maybe its just the camera angle, but damn your suspension looks tweaked.

best wach out on using a straight pipe cuz thats a good way to tear up the turbo and also give u bad mpg but still a good sound. great vid

how do you manage damaging the turbo by straight pipe... by the way my gas mileage hasnt changed

never rev a turbo engine before shutdown, the oil pressure drops as it is engine oil pump fed, the turbo is still spinning real fast, it fuks them.
