Yep, it will use Holset's sliding collar design though!

I do have to agree that the LLY D-Max and 6-uh-oh do sound good with an open exhaust. Jet engine if you will.......But drill a 4" hole in your fire wall right by your air box....(2nd gen that is) and you will get all the turbo you can handle! Some of the PS66's i have heard didn't sound too shabby either.......

My brother's '06 is louder at idle than mine is at 30 psi! Really though, they're pretty loud.

cant say i agree. a couple people i know with 05 and 06 6.0s scream. they sound really whistley, but from what ive heard is that the head gaskets go out every 30000 miles and you have to take the cab off to change it.
