What about taking a 5.3 putting a borla muffler on and running 3 inch all the way back? Think it would drone? Or just going with a borla muffler and leaving everything else stock.

If you want to pretend your tying to outrun a Blackhawk helicopter thats the way to go. I have a Magnaflow 14 inch single in ,duel out with turndowns. V8 sounds great. V4 is horrible. :driving:

Regular price is $1249 but if you can get a 15% off ($187.35) GM accessories coupon from your dealership, you can get it for 1061.65. I don't think you will find it any cheaper

gm accessories coupon..? Wanna explain

Please and thanks

They come in the mail from your dealership, 15% off chevy or GMC accessories depending on the dealership.

 

Edit: I get them in the mail at least once a month, from one of 3 different dealerships

Corsa cat back with ARH headers. Love it

 

 

 

 

Sent from Tapashit

Quick question, is it the headers that give it the loud idle, or the exhaust? I really like how loud and rumbly it is at idle, plus how long its lasts, most that i hear don't stay loud for very long, now i don't know if thats from the video or headers? Also can I use a different tip without effecting the sound or tone? I would like just to put a single 4" or 5" tip.

Hey guys, I have a 2014 GMC Sierra V8 5.3L Base Model, I am looking to upgrade the exhaust, the stock one has only 1 pipe coming out of the back, I was looking on carid.com and they are showing exhaust systems with 1 pipe and others with 2, all claiming they can fit my truck and also they all have different dimensions of pipe, does that matter if they are smaller or bigger than my stock exhaust? I want to make sure before I spend a grand on this, thanks. I have a attached pic to show you what I mean

Have you tried to contact a local muffler shop? Just talked to one the other day out the door was 400 for flow masters w/ tips of your choice. Still leaning towards that corsa sport though. They were pretty much saying that borla is an expensive magnaflow.

Yeah it seems like the flowmasters are reasonably priced and sound the best in my opinion, for the sound I want, I have decided to go with the Flow Master "American Thunder" model, the Borla exhaust systems are over 1000 each while the flowmasters are around 600-700.Whats your opinion on new headers along with a cold air intake kit, worth it? Keep in mind the only headers available for my truck as listed on this site is a Gibson brand and will cost the same as my exhaust system itself, and the two different cold air intakes are pricey as well, ill post some pics

I have been reading a lot about Gibson and their products aren't the best around. A lot of folks are having issues with some of their exhausts. I'm definitely not an expert. I would expect around spring you will start seeing new models.

Yeah I haven't even really heard of them, but Flowmaster is a top of the line brand, ill go with them for a exhaust and try the Injen cold air intake, the other cold air intake on the site is 100 bucks more but i did my research, and the people who dyno tested it, actually lost performance, which is why research pays off, wow.

Keep hearin magnaflow is way better than flowmaster. When are you getting the work done?

not sure, so far I know what I want by online comparison, ordering from carid.com will end up with additional shipping and border fees since im in canada, so tomorrow ill head to napa auto parts and see if they can get me the same parts and i will compare their price....i remember when i ordered stuff for my car from carid.com i had to pay a additional $300-$400 for border fees so if i can avoid that i would like to

Is there any muffler I can put on without drone? Really don't want too spend a grand on a full exhaust. Just want the truck too sound like a v-8

Posted

Every once in a while I post this for new comers. Seven months ago I put my truck up on the lift to work on the exhaust. I saw all the stuff on there and decided to experiment, so I cut the muffler off left everything else. It didn't sound bad at all low rumble at speeds you hear it when you nail it. Cost 40$. To get rid of the drone I ran in M5 till I would stay steady over 65, then I just clicked to M6. If you don't like the sound its only 40$ no big deal, chance it. Then I finally bought a can tune to get rid of the V4 sound and firm up the transmission buy removing some of the TM Im very satisfied. All that for less than 400$. Or you can spend a grand or more just on the exhaust to get your sound and hopefully no V4.

    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future. 
    • Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it. 
    • Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me. 
    • $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
