It's engineered into the intake pipe for better performance, but "yes" if you want better sound then go for it. If you want better performance "power" and mileage per gallon then keep it in place. This thing corrects turbulent air flow and the turbo uses air more efficiently, I like the sound so mine is on the shelf.. Just the facts.....

[@wepplerd63]

Literally just went outside and did this in 20 mins (cleaned out the air filter while I had it opened) and the foam was folded over and very discolored so I'm glad I took it out, can't wait to drive it again soon

Take out the foam. Leave in the baffle. It funnels air efficiently to your turbo. Otherwise you get increased internal temps and lower boost.

[@leonardrice2830]

Hey, 2018 G56 Ram 3500 Tradesman here. 😃 Was watching video & decided, "What the heck?🤔 I'll take my turbo silencer baffle out as well". Guess what?🙄 That thing *IS* a restriction to air flow! My truck is more responsive and feels a tad stronger!😃 Noticeable high pitch "weeeeeee" as well. (Wish it were louder.) Thx for the tip!👍

[@ryan2546]

You’re welcome!!

[@edwilliams8789]

Wrong! Data logger appears to show the foam can be removed without impact, but the baffle ensures more air is funneled into the turbo. Without the baffle, your intake temps rise and your boost decreases. Thats never good on a diesel. Suggest you look at "Marion Blair" on KZbin to see the actual numbers across several runs. Seat of the pants will lie to you.

[@leonardrice2830]

Ed Williams Calm down, sheesh! 🙄 I know all about Mr. Blair & watched the video you mentioned a long time ago. Many people remove the baffle, no problems. For my application, Cummins with manual transmission, the combo of a BD throttle booster, K&N filter, & baffle removal tremendously helped & I'll never go back. That truck was a serious slug before I did that. And again, I like the turbo "Weeeeeeeeee"!😃

[@robbiejk9613]

I used to do things like this, until I went to Engineering school. The speed of flow through that chamber is now reduced without the insert. You think it's better flow because you can hear the turbo, but it's actually not improved flow. An Anemometer installed on the turbo entrance would register less airflow with the unit removed.

Marion Blair actually used facts and measurements. It proved the validity of this piece. Its not a huge difference without it, but it is BETTER with it in every measurable way.

This is a prime example of what appears to be aint what it appears to be. Science rules!

[@lucky415tahoe]

Just took it off and oh yeah you can definitely hear the turbo

[@edwilliams8789]

You need to be aware that the baffle (not the foam), was there for a reason. Without the baffle the air going to your turbo will become turbulent, causing less boost and higher intake temperatures. A data logger shows you the truth of the matter. The baffle is not there to restrict flow, its there to ensure a smooth transition of air into the turbo.

[@MCMUSICH]

Do not for sure but maybe it is to filter the blowby since it is routed to the turbo intake

[@Dunki113]

A guy on KZbin called "Marion Blair" tried this and did a comparison between it being removed and it being left in and from what he discovered through his tests was that you're better off taking the foam out but leaving the baffle in (the thing the foam is wrapped around) because in his test when he took the whole thing out he actually lost performance in his turbocharger because on the bottom if the baffle has a small scoop on it that helps feed the air directly into the turbo Without the foam the baffle has many holes so it doesn't restrict air from coming in like it would with the foam on and the scoop on the bottom of the baffle helps feed air into the turbo because the stock intake has sharp angles to feed air into it so the baffle is what helps with that problem, you would probably achieve similar or better results by installing a cold air intake that probably has smoother angles to feed the air into the turbo It's basically like if you were to do a straight pipe exhaust but left the cat on, you help the truck a bit but it's not as efficient as just doing the whole thing

That cross inside the intake filter actually increases airflow by creating a laminar flow...

Actually, doesn’t increase anything, at all, quite the opposite . There’s a guy here on KZbin who used a bunch of meters and sensors while hooked up to a Dino to prove it doesn’t increase 💩. It actually slows it down when removed. It does sound better without it, and the decrease in airflow is pretty much unnoticeable. But sorry, no laminar here

[@CHILLHP]

A lot of misleading info in this vid. It actually doesn't restrict the airflow and it actually helps airflow into the compressor housing. It was engineered for a reason. With that out now you have a huge intake pipe that shrinks down with a sharp ledge before the turbo and creates unwanted turbulence. By the way it does not make any sound difference. Take the foam out absolutely because if it fails then guess where it's going. But the plastic air deflector insert should stay with the factory intake. The intake filter box is what is restrictive.

[@robbiejk9613]

Finally, the smartest comment I've seen on here! I'll add an example for clarity. If suction on a certain inner diameter tube at 1,000 rpm is X, then increase the diameter of the tube, rpm stays at 1,000, then flow drops significantly.

I bought my truck used in in December 2012 and by the summer of 2013 I had deleted it and added a K&N air filter. But I did leave the muffler on cause I didn't want it loud. I run just a Smarty JR set at 75 hp towing mode because I tow and with 3:73 gears running 78mph I get about 18-19mpg and when I load my 40' gooseneck with 28 4x5 rolls of hay I'm still getting around 12-13 at 60-65 mph

[@ryan2546]

Yes I want to delete mine too proabably gonna run a muffler as well had a straight piped 5.9 and that was so damn loud lol 😂

[@stacyreid5077]

Ryan Mayer that's what I thought also I do want to put a better muffler on it though

[@brickson98m]

How loud is the Cummins 6.7 vs the Powerstroke 6.7? Because I know everyone straight pipes their Powerstroke because they're so quiet anyways. My stock one is so so so quiet. It's almost embarrassingly quiet.

[@stacyreid5077]

brickson98moto my Cummins 6.7 with a muffler is still louder at idle than the PowerStroke 6.7 deleted, but after they are revvd up the straight pipes PowerStroke is louder

[@leonardcusumano3524]

Is it legal to do this

[@ryan2546]

Yes

[@leonardcusumano3524]

Is the truck still running good without the baffle, thanks Ryan

[@grumpyoldman336]

is that a part designed by Cummins to protect the turbo? or is it a Dodge designed thing to meet some epa standards?

[@ryan2546]

In all honesty people think it’s meant to direct air in the turbo and quiet it, so defiantly and EPA thing I’m guessing, they ruin all the fun

[@grumpyoldman336]

Ryan Mayer yea they do the same thing with atvs and sleds choke them to death with all kinds of shit you need to tear off when you buy them

[@givnofuchs5742]

It also acts as a baffle for the crankcase vapors coming from the valve cover. Without the baffle, now you have oily vapor going straight into your turbo and intake system. This is never mentioned in this video.

[@brickson98m]

It's a Cummins, it'll survive

[@brickson98m]

Doug Anderson chill, it’s a joke. I drive a powerstroke anyways 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@claytonleroy9034]

Will this void your warranty?

[@ryan2546]

Some claim it does other claim it doesn’t, put it back in if you are worried and go in for warranty work! Chances are they won’t be removing the air box anyway!

[@roelramirez4264]

Will this affect anything due to smog emissions in California?

[@ryan2546]

This will not!

[@roelramirez4264]

What if i just take it of completely, and just drive it with out that attachment?

[@leonardrice2830]

Roel Ramirez If you drive without it, your truck will run better & be fine.👌

[@cantevenseeyourightn]

Who cares

[@Furrygumball71]

Dude PLEASE tell me what kind of PWER FREAKIN TOW MIRRORS you’ve got there !!!??!!!!

[@ryan2546]

They’re OEM!!! Came on the truck

[@Furrygumball71]

They’re so awesome

[@MississippiMudMX]

no way it made a diesel with a turbo whistle

[@bighorn9119]

What do you work in

[@Icutmetal]

Alex Guzman Huh?

[@brickson98m]

I think he's asking what he does for a living

[@braydenmackay6627]

whats the deal with manual transmission trucks being rare over in the states , over here in nz 9/10 trucks are manual , autos are rare to find because no one wants them

[@ryan2546]

I wish it was that way here! Lol everybody wants autos

[@twicks2305]

Because us Americans are lazy

[@marko9594]

because they can't take the high torque like an auto trans can in america our trucks have huge engines even the crapy g56 is only rated for a 4.5 liter diesel not the 6.7 that dodge put it behind dodge detuned the 6.7 just so the g56 wouldn't blow up and even in stock trim it still does so engineers need to step it up in the design of these things instead of selling this junk maybe go back to cast iron cases so the thing don't twist and separate the end bearings or add a center bearing so there is three of them. instead of two.

[@brickson98m]

Dodge just can't figure out transmissions. But yeah, if you look at hp and torque figures for Cummin's (and most modern diesels) you'll notice in the late 90's to mid 2000's, there was a shift from manuals putting down more power, to autos putting down more power. With they way they can be fine tuned by the computer, they end up putting down more power. It is really convenient to have an auto. Manuals are super fun, but for a daily, I like autos.

[@seove1]

@@ryan2546 same here!

[@stressyporkrind3828]

So clue me in didn't you just remove your only air filter ?

[@harleyames6895]

No he did not the filter is in the box all that is a mufllernfor the turbo basically tonquiet the truck cause people complain about how it's to load in the cabs

[@Icutmetal]

No.

[@brickson98m]

People who complain about their truck being loud are the kind of people who shouldn't be driving trucks.

[@PSUKev]

At the very least they shouldn't be driving diesels.

[@brickson98m]

Yeah... And to the original comment, if you think that was filtering the air whatsoever, you might want to study up a bit on engines in general.

[@CombatBuckee]

Or just go buy an actual performance intake that deletes the whole thing

[@keepingitpinnedlongasican2513]

pull the filter piece out leave the director piece in

[@KeeganVera]

You gunna pay for me a new turbo?

[@gabeulrickson2496]

We could hear it if you rolled down the window

[@CaneCorsoProject]

Gabe Ulrickson No you couldn’t. It sounds the same because it sounds the same.

[@ConTheDon187]

lol wtf Chrysler?
