Hey guys how y’all been? I’ve been ok but having a hard time finding parts for my truck. I’m not great at the knowing part lol, I mean, I can take off parts and put them on no problem but knowing what parts is what I need help with. I have already got a K&N CAI with aluminum pipes which has improved the turbo sound but I’m trying get more spooling noise. I’ve got a SCT X4 tuner with a preloaded tune and just purchased 5 tunes from blessed performance. Still waiting for them to come in but I’ve been looking for exhaust systems, bigger turbos and down pipes but can’t find any builds to go by. Most places don’t even sell (that I can find) parts for the 2021 2.7. Most are for years prior or the 3.5. They had an SPD turbo whistle exhaust that sounds great but it’s for up to 2020. Any advice or builds you all may have to help guide me would be great. I’ll attach a video that shows what I’ve got now as far as spooling noise. I took the video to see if the air dam worked, it does and you can hear the spooling for a little bit but I want it louder. Also attaching some pics of upgrades Ive done so far. Turbosmart BOV
Again, thanks in advance.

I did a search and could not find downpipes for your year. Most likely they would have to be custom made.
i did not find turbos either. I would call Pure Turbos and see what they say.
CVF and AFE have intercooler piping for your year.
I could not find turbo inlets for your year. However, a potentially free mod (if your truck has them) is to remove the turbulence sound suppressors located inside the factory turbo inlets. That may not be the correct terminology. To check to see if you have them, remove the KN intake tubes you put on and see if the inserts are inside the black factory turbo inlets. I know a guy with a 24 2.7 that had them. My ‘23 3.5 did not.
As far as exhaust there are options from MBRP and Magnaflow. I’ve come to understand Mbrp mufflers have a louvered core which I don’t like. Magnaflow uses a smoother flowing perforated core. There are probably other brands as well.
I build exhaust for a living so naturally I made my own.
