I was wondering if anyone on here has removed the silencer ring from the turbo on their 6.0's. I removed the intake pipe that leads into the turbo to reveal a cone shaped housing that had the ring in it. I tried to get the ring out but nothing seemed to work. My friend's step dad, who modifies diesels and drives monster trucks for a living said I might have to heat the ring up for it to slide out? Does anyone have any experience with this or any insight on the removal of the ring? Also does it have any real effect on the motor or performance to take the ring out? Thanks again for any response.
