    My next call would have been to my credit card company requesting a refund.

    • “WARNING” not everything you read on the internet is true ! . Ya , I know it’s hard to believe. I had read that a turbo does a great job quieting the exhaust and that no muffler is needed. Well that’s not the case here , she’s plenty loud . A 3 inch Flowmaster has been ordered. I’ve also added a oil temp sensor and a cooling pressure sensor, just because I could. The Terminator X doesn’t recognize thermistors but the Holley dash does so I won’t be able to log oil temps but at least I’ll be able to see what they are ( for what it’s worth) .

        Mutt the Race Truck is disappointingly quiet but he is, after all, a Diesel (exhaust off the turbo outlet and thru the front fender). As always, your results may vary.

        • Turbo size, exhaust diameter and length all go into this. Some builds get away with out a muffler and are not too loud. I had a 3" to 4" front exit exhaust it was too loud but I wanted it quiet so it has full exhaust now.

          The internet says you don't want a chambered muffler on a turbo. That being said I have flow masters on my car because that's what I already had.

ID:	1327172 Both builds outside in the sun together for the first time in a long time. I then drove the S10 into the garage and it promptly blew power steering fluid all over the place. The pump has two outlets, I had a cap on one and it blew off . Clean up and a small hose clamp and all is good again.

ID:	1328215 Well this stage is completed , she’s running great and everything seems to be co-operating. Just in time for the rainy weather , so this weekend I did the shuffle. S10 moved outside and wrapped up and move the Cougar inside for some maintenance/modifications.

                pretty sure youre not supposed to run chamber style mufflers with a turbo
                (actually gale banks engineerings kit for our old 7.3 specifically said not
                to use flowmasters by name...) that being said, your car your money but
                my $0.02 is either a true "turbo" type (like the corvair style, theres a reason
                they call them turbo mufflers...) or a 3" through glasspack and/or resonator.

                you may end up with less power, lag, more heat, or all 3 with the fromasters.....

                  You are correct , this muffler is not chambered . It’s a Flow FX piece by Flowmaster. Thanks for looking out for me

                    havent seen those, took a fast look and you
                    are correct--that is exactly the kind of muffler
                    youre "supposed" to use with a turbo motor.

                    i stand corrected sir, good job.
