i have a 2004.5 lly stock turbo, with silverline exhaust, ppe tuner, s&d intake, diamond eye exhaust down pipe. What are some things i could do "cheap" on a military man's budget to make som noise out of my stock turbo. I am addicted to that noise. thanks

No cat and No muffler is the best you can do OR

Put a stack in your bed and you will REALLY hear that whistle.

I have an 04.5 as well and you've done about all there is. You can tweak the turbo "sound" in EFILive a bit but that's about the only other thing you can do.

Maybe a different intake setup with an LBZ inlet would help performance but I don't remember any sound difference when I did mine. Oh, that reminds me, you can take the 6.6L thing off the turbo inlet and plug that hole, it might make a difference or at least a psychological difference.

It is loud. Had a few ppl comment that their ears were bleeding after I went by WOT :D

Putting an exhaust back on though. Too much smoke and soot getting on the tailgate and back window. Looks like a bomb goes off under the truck everytime I romp on it....

If you put a 90 on the exhaust facing down you won't get any soot on your truck and you get the cool echo effect for sound. Check out this old video. Somewhere towards the middle there a good clip of my truck where you can see the exhaust. This is from back when it was big
