He posted a link to the noisemaker, so I do believe @weekend-warrior was trying to be helpful.

Air cleaner boxes are designed to silence the induction noise. Remove the air cleaner and use an open air filter, you will hear more turbo impeller noise.

This is a diesel. You cannot make the turbo whistle sound because you do not have a throttle plate to restrict airflow. A faked sound is the best you can get.

Maybe the OP should trade for an International Harvester CXT like this:

Maybe focus on making the exhaust sound you like.

Another idea: Some manufacturers (Alfa Romeo for example) have speakers or sonic resonators in the engine compartment to produce a sound they think the customer would like to hear. It might be possible for an expert to extract one of those gadgets from a wreck and install in your car.

The sound is generally played through the stereo. My Mustang has a tube from the intake to the car’s interior to import intake noise… 🥸

@VOLVO-V70 is loud enough. Don’t make him any louder. 😃
