After I looked again at your setup I believe I seen that "bypass" stuff before... Isn't it there to help with the drone in-cab?

I built a cat back dual out exhaust with a dynamox vt muffler. Absolutely no drone when cruising. There is definitely a different tone in v4. At idle has a nice tone and sounds throaty when you get on it which is what I was looking for.

My last two trucks a had gibson.

But my 2010 all terrain had significant drone with gibson

Which I replaced with dynamic kit when the gibson rotted out. The dynamox was better. Which gave me the idea to build one with vt muffler. So far I am liking it.

I figured i'd share my experience with my purchase of the DynoMax cat-back system on my truck. First off, I forgot to take pictures during install. However, it was very straight forward. I'm planning on taking some pictures of it installed and a video


.


Personally, i wasn't going to spend $1,000 on a Corsa system, although i know they are a very high quality product. I'd been searching around for a stainless, cat-back, single exit system. I was almost set on buying an AFE system until i found the DynoMax system. I paid $290 for it shipped to my door from Jegs! http://www.jegs.com/i/Dynomax/289/39529/10002/-1


All i wanted to was to ditch my factor muffler and resonator, get a better sound, and have a more free flowing exhaust. For the price, i thought it was a steal for a stainless system.



On to the install. Honestly, the hardest part was wiggling the stock system out, as i didn't want to cut it. I had the rear axle on jack stands to give myself more room under the truck. A buddy and I moved the system rearward to get the front of the exhaust cleared from the cross member and down on the ground. I discovered i didn't have enough room between the top of the axle and the frame cross member. With the truck still on jack stands, we lifted the trailer hitch to take the weight off the suspension, which gave me enough room to wiggle the resonator up over the axle and out the front. I installed the DynoMax system piece by piece, from the front to the rear. Super easy. 3 new clamps, 2 pieces of exhaust pipe, 1 muffler. Fit in the factory hangers with no problem. Installed the exhaust tip. Double checked the clamps. Fired it up, no leaks, sounds good. The tone is nice, but it is not aggressive as say a Flowmaster super 40. It is pretty tame in the higher RPM's. However, if anyone out there wants a cat back, stainless system at a good price, i'd order the DynoMax again and suggest it to others. Hope this helps those wanting a value exhaust system.

Looks like that cat back does NOT come with their VT muffler, the one with the valve. It comes with the ultra-flow. So I don't think you got a valve.

What? I know it doesn't have a valve? Did you read "value exhaust" as "valve exhaust"? hahah

In case anybody finds a new exhaust kit for a previous body style truck at a good deal...it may fit your truck. It did for me.

 

My truck is a 2014 RCSB and is lowered 4" front and 7" rear.

 

I scored a brand new Corsa kit for a 03-06 Silverado SS for dirt cheap. My plan was to just use the muffler and tip. As I was installing the kit I decided to try the over axle for fit check. The kits over axle ended up fitting perfect and lined up with the exhaust hangers like factory. Only modification was I could not use the kits flange to muffler pipe so I had to cut the stock pipe off at the factory flex pipe and add about a foot of pipe that goes to the muffler.

 

Total install only took 20 minutes using a lift. Sounds and looks awesome.

After reading this forum and doing as much research as I could stand, I decided to go with the 18" magnaflow

 

Thanks for everyone's input!

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
