Silencer Ring or Not

Take it out, see if you like it, put it back in if you don't. My turbo whistle never gets old and I wish it were 10x louder.

Yeah... I like mine out but that's me... I only really hear it up a grade, under a good size load, or 20+ psi, and next to a wall If you don't like it, put it back... it is not hard with a flat heat to take out, and not hard to put it in either.

I wonder of there's a difference between the the HX, and HY's. I have the HX, and like several other posters here, barely notice a difference, certainly not enough to become annoying on extended trips. Others here seem to notice a huge difference and/or find it enough to be annoying. Maybe i just got used to it from my OTR days.

What might be the big difference is the air filter steup... Stock airbox will muffle the noise really good... But a BHAF will allow the turbo whistle to come through really good...

Yeah and my AFE is the same way. Another thing i noticed was when i had the silencer ring out and not straight pipe it was not as noticeable but once I straight piped it It was like jet taking off

I have had mine out for a couple years now. Its just loud enough to hear sing, but not annoying, even at 30psi towing. It got a bit louder when I ditched the factory tq tube for a Airaid MIT. I think the 3rd gen air box location and design are just quieter.

my employee took mine out while changing th oil in my truck last week, i hear a big differance, annoying at first but it grew on me i think ill leave it out but keep it around just incase a long trip comes along

Agreed, I love how the BHAF sounds.
