I also did the  hole saw thing on my buddies powerstroke, and it's not notably loud.

I don't know, mine is  pretty much a hole through the middle, and its quieter above 3000 than below.


I like this resonator design, the Moroso spiral flow, it seems it's called.

Edit: doesn't seem to be available in enough sizes, I'd need 2 inch.   Looks like a turbo with glasspack is still the best solution.

thats a moroso spiral flow muffler.. its not a resonator, or a glass pack, but a welded muffler.. they are awesome..

we have a pair on our aluminum tube frame sand rail (500+ hp corvette 327 powered) and they are very pleasant at idle.. but once you get on it, you can definitely tell they are an OPEN muffler..

im sure on a TD they sound REALLY good..
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.

Believe it or not,It's not actually loud )probably because of the stock size pipes)
And I've only had it over 3500RPM 2X--when I missed a shift going into 5th entering the highway.(dumped into 3rd) With the gov mod-holy crap ! The exhaust was the last thing on my mind ! Redlined pretty damn quick-but didn't come apart. I had replaced all the shifter bushings and ball,but the adjustment wasn;t quite right.
You bet I adjusted that correctly,after that mishap.

Probably had exhaust leaks and/or the exhaust didn't exit from under the vehicle..

I'm sorry but even my v8 straight off the long tubes wasn't too loud for me..
