TURBO SILENCER RING TO LOUD!

PUT IN SCOTTY 2 TODAY AND REMOVED THE RING WHILE I WAS AT IT AND BOY DOES IT SOUND LIKE THE TURBO GONNA FLY OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AMOST TO LOUD I THINK. WONDER IF YOU COULD JUST GRIND THE RING DOWN A LITTLE AND GAIN JUST A LITTLE MORE WHISTLE INSTEAD?

I can barely hear mine.<br>Still have the stock air box/filter though.<br><br>You can really hear them with the free flowing filters such as the AFE Megacannon, BHAF, and of course the Scotty II.<br><br>It's noticebly louder without the ring though.<br>Still have it in my tool box in case it gets too loud though. ;D<br><br><br>phox

Re:TURBO SILENCER RING TO LOUD!

I think my scotty with the ring removed sounds cool .....there was a period where I thought it was a bit loud, but then you get used to and and don't even hear it untill you put your foot in it

Re:TURBO SILENCER RING TO LOUD!

Can somebody show the link or post I saw a month or so ago on how to remove the ring. I did a search and nothing came up. I remember someone showed pictures. Thanks for the help.

Re:TURBO SILENCER RING TO LOUD!

The dogs won't go nuts because of the noise ... but the noise from the cat that is stuck between the dual wheels will sure stir em up !! ;D<br><br>PISTOL
