AFM is still enabled on my truck (damn diablotune has been a pita) and I don't get the helicopter sound with a magnaflow like I did with flowmaster

Lol you go through mufflers like I go through shoes. Let us know what you go with. Some people have been lucky and been able to buy the Corsa Sport muffler by itself. I've looked around and can't seem to find just the muffler.

Yea lol. Well to my defense, I really wanted corsa from the beginning but like everyone else, don't want to pay for a full system. I really do like the magnaflow, but I wish it was louder when getting on it. I'll let you know how things turn out.

So I actually found somebody selling a used corsa online. He sent me these pics. Sill trying to get more out of him, but it's a his suburban now. These are all the pics he's sent me so far. He says there is a dent in the muffler, but that doesn't bother me. He's got it priced at $100. What do yall think?

 

Truth be told, I don't want or need the pipe or tips. I'm just after the muffler.

Yea..what I found out is this guy had it on his 2001 Suburban. I called Corsa and talked to them about it an they said it would probably fit, but this muffler doesn't have components to keep the drone down or AFM. He said because of that it would sound different than the ones meant for these trucks. Not sure how that would've played out, but I just let it go. i think when the time comes I'll just buck up and buy the real deal.

Makes sense...

Regarding a Corsa Touring muffler for our GM trucks...

Some members posted on the forum that the Corsa Sport is too loud for them, especially those with 6.2L. I called Corsa about another question, and asked if they were planning to offer a Touring muffler for our trucks as well as the Sport. They told me, no Touring muffler is planned, but the noise level of the Sport can be cut down to approximate the level of a Touring muffler by adding a "pack" muffler on the head pipe side before the muffler (14" long X 3" pipe diameter glass pack muffler at Summit Racing).

I just put a Flowmaster Deltaflow 50 series on my latest Z71. Took first road trip right after and it wasn't bad at all. I have previously had a delete muffler then a Magnaflow 14 inch on my other 2014s. Cold start up is just right, AFM chopper not very bad, nice little growl when needed and with the Flowmaster baffling as opposed to the Maggie straight thru design you won't sacrifice any low end torque. :thumbs:

 

Thanks will look into that. Haven't made a move on the exhaust yet

Anyone running the magnaflow 11229? Thoughts?

What size muffler is that?

 

I've had the 18" and 14" now. Both sound great. Only difference is 14" is louder and more aggressive sound. Both are pretty quiet while highway cruising.

Its a 4x9 oval, 14 inches long

That is what I narrowed it down to. im calling local shops to price an 18 inch magna flow install, im just trying to decide if I should delete the resonator and flaer or not.

Yes, remove the resonator. The 18" isn't that loud and sounds great without the resonator.

What Wendy's said. Delete flapper and resonator. It sounds great. You will be happy with it.

Here are pic's of my Magnaflow #15318 for the 6.2, no drone!

Is this the 4" system with the 22" muffler? I'd love to hear some clips or vids of this if you could.

I went with 3" from cat back into a flowmaster 40 then 3" to the 3 1/2" tip. Sounds good imo.

    • 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...
