no, it would require a different controller. The aurora 5000 really sounds like a jet getting ready to take off. If you were to do a twin set-up it would sound good too. It has been discussed on other forums about trying to take a LLY turbo and put it on the LB7. From what I read, it wouldn't work and from what guys are saying, the fixed vane turbo is less complicated and less things go wrong with them.

Also, the duramax does not have a silencer ring like the cummins does.

If you really want a load whistle just disconnect your exhaust from your down pipe. You will hear nothing but turbo whistle all day from idle to red line.
