video of my borla ATAK

 

 

 

Do the 6.2 s not go into V4 mode? I don't recall seeing it in the video. TUNE?. Sounds good .

My main concern is drone. I haven't seen any videos or reviews with a 10 series installed though. I think the 70 would be a little too tame for my taste though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Did you end up doing this? Does anyone have any clips of a 2014 with the 10 series?

No, I haven't. Been pretty busy with work, over 12k miles so far, since February.

Just saw your old post, if a 10 may be too loud and a 70 too tame, just do an exhaust cut out or what I call a real dual exhaust system, put in a cutout after the headers join together and have 2 mufflers, both leading to the same exit points, but have one that gives off a much more tame sound and the other a not so tame sound. I plan to do this eventually on my 14' I think it would be much smarter to do that. Just incase you ever don't want to catch a cop on a bad day or completely PO all the neighbors, you can have the tame exhaust sound, or when you want to just hear the engine roaring, you can have that too.

I just installed the Magnaflow 15318 and it sounds really deep and kind of mellow quieter than I thought it would be with that 4" pipe. Headers go on this weekend

Good thing to be busy with...

 

I haven't been able to find any clips of the 14' 5.3L w/ the 10 series but I went ahead and ordered the outlaw system. Should be here next week sometime, I'll post some clips after the install if anyone is interested.

Very true!

 

That would be much appreciated. Hope you like it.

I got the Gibson single swept side exhaust. It sounds good with a nice deep burble. Unfortunately the V4 drone is horrible. The pipes and muffler were heavy gauge stainless. Easily better than a Flowmaster setup. The clamps Gibson includes with the kit are garbage. I managed to snap one of the U-bolts with nothing more than a 1/2" ratchet. I ended up ordering a couple Walker lap joint band clamps and Permetex exhaust sealant. Exhaust note sounds much better with a proper seal.

Can you post some videos on yours?? Debating the single or dual side exhaust but I can't find any clips of both.

I'll work on getting a video up this week.

    • Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.
    • 10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O. 
    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
    • yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
