This is probably the right one with slit to slip on. Looks like itd be a little short though so need some extra pipe.

Well crap. Now do I buy that and see if I like it better than the flowmaster.

 

You can just buy one of these to get it to work.

Haha let me know if you try it before I get to it. Figured there was a slip fit piece out there like that, but that is mild steel. Would want stainless like the rest.

Doesn't matter here in MN, they all rust[emoji14]

My Dynomax has rust on the pipes.

Ok so from what I've heard the third cat can be cut out and not effect anything BUT will it still pass emissions and not void warranty, these are the only two things that worry me when the time comes when I want to do an exhaust

The 3rd cat was just to make them all Cali legal so a Cali resident couldn't just buy one out of state. It will pass emissions without it unless you're in Cali. As for Warranty, it depends on how the dealer wants to be. I thought about removing mine, but I've read on here that removing it doesn't effect sound so I'm not going to worry about it. When I had my exhaust done I just had them take everything from the muffler on back out and then do what I wanted done.

I just took off my 3.5 in/3.5 out 22" Magnaflow and put on a 14" 3.5 in/3.5 out. I deleted the resonator sometime back. I love the new sound and in cab noise is minimal. I may change my mind once the new muffler breaks in, may have to add the resonator back, but I doubt it it. Talked to my muffler shop and we are going to order some 3.5" 90* and 45* and make a 3.5 tailpipe, instead of the 3".

'Just ordered the Flowmaster Force Two cat-back system (#817666). Believe it or not, available at Walmart. 10% Associate discount sealed the deal with free store pickup in a week. I plan to have it installed/welded with the exits behind the wheels.

I figured if Amazon has it, worth checking. Same item, but from walmart.com. I get 10% off.

True but i mean Amazon has a LOT of crap so that's not always true. But in your case it turned for the best!! Free shipping and 10% off hell i would have done it as well.... Just not on a fartmaster.

Has anyone found a good part number for just the exhaust tail pipe in 3" stainless mandrel bent (behind muffler)? Only one I have had luck with any hits is for Dynomax and the part number (54704) is on back order for months, but I'm sure they just don't want to sell the individual pieces. Might have to fall back on picking up the whole Dynomax kit to run the Magnaflow 11229 (14" long 3" SI/SO). Really would like to run stainless mandrel bent tubing versus the aluminized "crush bent" specially when it is pretty much the same price.

 

...Anyone want to buy a brand new Dynomax muffler? :driving:

 

 

Side note, but the Dynomax mid pipe is available in stock to buy by individual part number (55608)

Isn't there a Corsa piece like this in the FS section? Might be 3.5" though.

 

I'm thinking of taking my Dynomax Catback (with Flowmaster muffler) off and putting something else on.

GM Borla will be installed Tuesday. Know it's tame for many, but I'm not looking to announce coming and going early hours to my neighbors, or lose V4 functionality, but I do want to hear some growl from the truck. Hoping it will be the compromise I'm looking for. I'll try to post a sound clip after...the void of clips/videos out there for this system is surprising.

 

Have you had a chance to get some clips of your exhaust? I'd love to hear some decent clips of the GM-Borla on a 6.2L.

I got the Dynomax pipes but it took me two months from when I ordered them until I had them both. I ordered the intermediate pipe from Summit and found the tailpipe on eBay. Also, I put an 18" Magnaflow on mine and I wouldn't go any shorter without the Dynomax extension pipe (51075) because you won't have enough pipe to clamp onto. Edited by je1279

    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.
