Anyone familiar with the Gibson Metal Mulisha exhaust for 6.2L? If so what's the deal with the 4" piping? Sounds good as far as I can hear on YouTube just not a big fan of the exhaust tip but cant beat the price. I've used Corsa sport on 2 prior vehicles and still looking for that sound level but don't really want to pay the 1k price tag.

 

Volant is basically the Corsa with lower grade stainless, without the name and no flex joint if I remember right. 700ish but I found it a little cheaper on autoanything on sale.

thanks for your feed back. What other exhaust would you suggest?

That is a pretty loaded question :).

 

It all depends on what you're after in an exhaust. It also depends on what side effects you're willing to put up with. (Helicopter noise if you have v4 mode still active, Drone if you go with a loud setup, etc)

Try the Flowmaster 50. I have had this muffler before a tune with V4 and after. Good either way. Kinda falls into that sweet spot. A lot like that childrens story with the three bears and that little tramp that broke in and eat all their shit and ordered a bunch of pay per view.

I am looking for a really deep sound but not to loud

Corsa is deep, but can be loud.

Borla is deep, but can be muffled if you get a larger sized muffler.

MagnaFlow, pretty much the same as Borla.

Flowmaster, isn't as deep, more loud.

 

These are my opinions and experiences.

I have it on my 5.3 and love the sound, it's a 4 inch exhaust for my truck also. I really like the way it sounds. I also have a range device to disable AFM.

I'd prefer just a muffler upgrade and obviously worried about the V4 sound being an issue. Been there / done that with annoying highway rides and it sucks.

Is it just me or do these trucks have a much deeper tone than previous generations? I'm not talking in stock form.

 

I've recently been listening to vids where guys are doing a muffler and resonator delete, the warm idle sounds so sick!! It nearly reminds me of a straight piped Duramax. I wonder if these trucks idle a bit lower than previous generations as well, that may add to it. Even revs sounds pretty good with the muffler/resonator delete. I am usually not a fan of the sound when people "straight pipe" but on this gen truck I'm liking it. I'm tossing the idea of doing it to mine.... I dunno tho.

Has anyone had muffler installed where the resonator was? I originally did the muffler delete and left the resonator in. I wanted it louder so I got a muffler I liked and it was small enough to be installed where the resonator was cut out at so I had the shop do that instead of cutting out the straight pipe we had already put in there. I'm assuming it wouldn't make any difference if the muffler is a little bit farther back right? I was thinking it would be louder, so that's why I am wondering.

Personally I never liked that the resonator looked like a huge growth in the fender well. I would just put the muffler where it normally would and change out the tailpipe also so it doesn't look all hacked up.

It doesn't bother me being in view of the wheel well, I was just wondering if it would make any difference.

Fixed the Y Pipe rubbing today, just cut out the corner of the transmission crossmember bracket.

After a year and half and having listened to many different exhuast setups I have decided to go with a muffler delete. I currently have the MagnaFlow dual rear exit cat back, and though it sounds good, it is just not loud enough.

 

I have listened to various different muffler delete setups and aside from the loud cold start they sound great to me. I will go in Thursday to replace MagnaFlow muffler for a stainless y pipe. The factory cats muffle the sound so much. I can't wait!

      Factory front brake rotors...defect?

      By Chris80s · Posted

      On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!

      2026 Z71 Forward and Rear Park Assist help

      By Slow · Posted

      2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.

      Post Pics of your "Other" Rides

      By KARNUT · Posted

      Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
