GD Muffler for the 6.2L


Recommended Posts

Posted

Looking to add some bark to my 6.2L. I want to just replace the muffler and that's it, along with get rid of the resonator. I was thinking Borla or Corsa, but does anyone have any other good suggestions? I want it to sound good with no back rap or drone if possible. Also I believe I have 3 inch pipe?

MBRP? Corsa's DB system, magnaflow, or the GM Performance Parts touring or sport muffler from Borla

Go to you tube there are some good video clips with the XR-1 Borla muffler. One clip has a comparison between factory and the xr-1. Sounds really good. Its the one I'd go with.

Ok I looked up the Borla, and I like it a lot. I also like Gibson. I found this clip on Youtube of a Corsa on the 6.2L, and I think its BY FAR my favorite!

The other one is spin tech. Its on you tube also.

 

 

 

The Gibson? I also saw that the Corsa isn't just the muffler, and it costs over a grand so its out of the question right now.

Corsa is made local to me, check out the db branded one, same as the corsa, just diffrent pipeclamps and they use diffrent grade of stainless for the pipe,

Here is a link to the video of the Spintech 9000 muffler on a 6.2

I like the Spintech thats probably what I would go with. Sounds awesome! Any idea where to buy one at, at a good price?

I bought the same spintech muffler as the guy in the clip above. Guy on ebay sells them for 99 bucks each.

I just installed a Corsa Touring cat back on my truck, side exit, it's awesome! It has that definitive Corsa sound with No drone, quiet at idle and crusing, aggressive when your in the gas. I have a 5.3L, BBP tuned. If I could get my ipad figured our I'd put up a sound clip, lol.

check out this muffler i put on mine. Magnaflow 3.5 in/out and its cheap

 

 

mnay of the aftermarket companies cat backs are only 3 inch and so you lose power. Just replace the main muffler with this muffler in my link and run a turndown. Its not loud and sounds perfect.

    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
    • you might read through the info on gmupfitter.com for your truck, to find a good power source.
    • Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally. 
    • Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
