When we got a little bit closer to this contraption the turbo started to sound like a squeaking serpentine belt. We also noticed that the engine was bogging and struggling for back pressure. One of my coworkers went and looked under the truck for exhaust modification and found the most stupidest thing. This nugget literally went to Walmart and bought 3 whistles (The same thing PE teachers and football Coaches use). He had all 3 of them clamped there somehow. He also ported the exhaust so that air only blows through the whistles. We were all kinda in shock that someone would do this to there truck to achieve a somewhat whistle. While me and the other drivers made our way back to our delivery trucks we couldn't help but to laugh at this guy try to crank his truck up for nearly 10 minutes and barely drive off the lot. The next package hell be picking up from the center will be another motor for his truck and 3 more whistles to replace the melted ones...
