First clip is factory exhaust, straight piped. The second clip is diamond eye 5 inch exhaust including down pipe. Should have done a rev on the second clip.

Sounds pretty good, you can get those gear reduction starters from the parts store. They spin up that 7.3 quick. I burned up my stock starter in negative Temps a little while ago and spent the extra cash for a new manufacture one and I haven't regretted it one bit

Thanks for the heads up! I’m pretty sure these batteries are just getting weaker by the week, especially on the first start. I also read that you can use a starter out of a little newer Powerstroke, not sure how true that is .

@@ericwilson8144 gear reduction starter is the way to go on both of the IDI and 7.3 powerstroke. For your IDI engine you likely have 2-3 bad glow plugs. If it was mine I'd replace them all instead of one or two at a time. Bosch only or you'll have trouble pulling them out later.

I had a 94 7.3 and with 2 new batteries, new glow plugs it started like a champ. I also by passed my glow plug relay and put a push button switch for the glow plugs, the relays on the obs 7.3 were junk, even new ones.

I definitely need to get some new batteries. The ones I have arnt that old but I hardly drive the truck. Maybe once a month. And when I decide to buy batteries, they arnt gonna be cheap Walmart ones. I’ve seen a lot of people by pass the glow plus and the ignition and put push buttons on both!

@@erik120719 Wow you only have 43xxx miles on it! Man… You can probably put that truck in a will, if the rust don’t get to her first. Not sure if Michigan lays down salt on the roads. My project will be injector’s and a T6 or Hydra. For now I don’t drive her much only to hall a vehicle here and there or wood. Bought some Archoil a few months back, would like to see how she starts on that. Previous owner neglected the truck bad. Ran off of used motor oil and used cooking oil for 16-17 years.

@SixOFord4 ай бұрын
@sentencedtobeme3697 I think the 4" has a more sharp, clean turbo sound to it. The 5" has a deeper but softer (to my ears) sound to it. More of a soft flutter. And it drones pretty bad in the 1700-2000 rpm range under load. I've had 4" on 7.3's in the past and never had that issue. I should have elaborated more on that in my original comment.

@sentencedtobeme3697 changing the compressor wheel will have no effect on the exhaust sound. You may hear a little more whistle in the cab from the turbo itself, but I doubt it. I did a wicked wheel in my first 7.3, turbo lasted a couple months after install. That's a balanced assembly the turns excessive rpm's. I'd just replace the whole turbo if I was you.
