There's a simple VTA (Vent to Air) MOD that takes the hose off the blowoff/bypass valve that vents the excess turbo pressure and you plug the return hose - instant PSSSHHH!
First - buy a really nice billet plug http://www.stage3motorsports.com/S3M-VTAMOD-2013-2014-F150-3-5L-EcoBoost-S3M-VTA-MOD-Plug.html - I got mine used for $20 shipped.
Some guys use this (honestly you can!)
Simply remove the plate under the front driver skid plate, you know - the one you take off to change the oil filter... 6 bolts, super easy. You reach up and simply untwist the hose connecting to the BOV off the intercooler. You can see the hose disconnected below.
Next, you take your fancy plug and stick it in the hose you just removed.
Now, just so I can be cool - I ziptied the hose to the BOV so it won't be jangling around by the fans
And here's the sound result! Amplified of course thanks to the open air element from Whipple :)
Incredibly simple to do, and if you like the PSSSSH! then do it! if not, plug it back in!
See ya!
