Cut mine out from the muffler back, added a flowsound muffler and came out the side of the body in front of the wheel with a 4" double walled tip.

 

Here is what the final product looks like. She now sounds like a truck

 

While this looks cool. With these motors being DI, your gonna have a lot of black soot all over the side of your fender and probably on your wheels and tires after not too long.

I'm expecting soot on the truck and wheels. The wheels are getting powder coated black so it won't really be noticeable. Besides the truck is gonna get dirty, scratched, muddy and who know what else I'm gonna put her through so I'm not afraid of a little soot on the fender.

Is there a specific thread anywhere for exhausts 6.2? I'd love to see more pics, sound clips, and reviews on it

They do some really nice work there.... I wish they could have done a couple of them with X-Pipes up as close to the engine as possible... Even though it is a single muffler system, it makes a big difference in the burble sound you get with a true dual system like they are building. Some like the burble, some don't. I have never been a fan of the LSx exhaust note.

They didn't install an "X" pipe because the Flo-Pro and Flowmaster mufflers they used were the crossflow design and the Magnaflow muffler was the True X. Read the text in these pics.

I can't seem to find any cat backs for 2014 crew cab standard bed, it's the 6'6" box. I would prefer tips coming out behind rear wheels. Anybody know if the 15269 Magnaflow will work on my truck? I found one made by Gibson but I'm in Canada and can't buy from them. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you look at Borla, thru your GM dealer - GM accessory parts program.

I have been told for absolutely NO DRONE the Flo~Pro "big oval" muffler is the way to go. Has anyone used this muffler? Here is a video from Kinney's muffler shop on a 2012 GMC Denali Sierra. Wow, it's big.

I was told that the magnaflow 15269 will fit the 6'6" bed from Custom Truck, they have stock as well. I went custom made, it was 1/2 the price using the same muffler. Installed by ABC Muffler in Edmonton for $551 tax inc.

Wow.....That muffler is suppose to have a very aggressive sound. Update us when you get it installed.

So I just returned from my test drive with my new Borla exhaust and I am very pleased. The ATAK muffler is the most aggressive sounding exhaust they have and it was worth every penny. This exhaust has a nice deep rumble, during cruising speeds and in V4 mode the radio volume has to be turned down to actually hear the exhaust in the cab (no drone at all). Now when you get your foot in her it becomes a whole different animal, it basically screams get out of my way. All in all I'm extremely happy with the system, from fit and finish to sound it is just what I needed on my truck to make it sound like a truck. If we have decent weather this weekend I might try to use my Go Pro and get some driving video for everyone.

Very nice. Would be cool to see a video. Does the ATAK system have the flapper valve built in? I've heard that Borla was putting flapper valves on some of their systems.

Anthony, no the system does not have a flapper valve installed. I bought the exhaust and it was shipped directly from Borla this is not a GM Borla system which is what some people have said have the flapper valve installed but I don't know for sure. Actually I'm messing with the Go Pro right now just trying to locate my suction cup mount to attempt to get some video.

 

Edit: Here is a quick video of start up with the exhaust, I was just messing with my camera settings and checking out audio quality. Will get some actual driving video this weekend.

    • Which one, the AT or AS?   Starfire is made by Cooper/Goodyear but at $85/tire I'd think I'd need to level-set my expectations that they may not even be round 😉 But you're saying they're decent?   I'm already into this thing $1506 in parts, fluids, etc. Totaled all my receipts today. $250 of that was replacing an EGR and MAP sensor that were probably fine, but I'm not going to return the parts since they've been installed. I'm cheap, but not that cheap. I use it, I keep it!   I may or may not make money if I sell the truck at this point, but, that wasn't really the point. And if I billed my time, I'd be hosed for real. My thought on the tires is I "might" put 1,000 miles on before selling it. I just don't want to put absolute junk on it, that doesn't do anyone any good. If the Solus solidly isn't junk, I'll definitely consider them.        
    • I leave mine as is. I'm always a trip away from riding on unpaved roads. Dealer can clean it when they prep it after I trade it in for another new truck.
    • I have these on two vehicles and love them. Pepper is one of them 😉 
    • 4WD. Far as I know it came stock with P's and not LT's. Definitely planning to put P's on it, but stock is a 109 XL load rating so I should probably stick within that guideline.   No rebates on anything I can see at the moment. Discount Tire is offering $50 off, but Pep Boys is very competitive on price, and also carries all the off-brand stuff. Les Schwab always wants an arm/leg, but they do good work.   It still has the original spare. Goodyear Wrangler RT/S, thing looks like a tractor tire LOL!! How times have changed.    
    • 2020 Sierra 2500 HD (base model) gas engine 4wd.    All 4 windows roll down on their own. Happens somewhat randomly after stop and engine off - when engine turned off, when walking away from vehicle before or after locks activated. Pulled the window fuse F14 Instrument Panel Fuse Block Right; the driver's side still activates from driver's side door panel; passenger and back seat windows activate from local switches on their doors but not from driver's side group of switches. Power mirrors don't activate with fuse removed either (same fuse for both circuits). Problem not solved.    How can they even activate with fuse removed but they are all still opening and can control from each door?  When they open on their own, I can shut them from the switch in each door, but they don't stay closed.    Seems to be activated somehow with key fob; something bumping the key fob in my pocket or just handling - removed key fob and took it far enough away and now the windows stay closed. Replaced key fob batty just in case, no change.    Sounds like some kind of wiring short or maybe electronics. Dealer will first replace electronic control module without checking anything else and I anticipate problem will still exist since their troubleshooting skills are limited to "do whatever the computer says".  In any case, keyfob seems to be activating the circuitry.    Surely I'm not the only one with this issue, but I can't find anything related on the site. What do yall think?   JohnRoy
