video of my borla ATAK

 

 

 

Do the 6.2 s not go into V4 mode? I don't recall seeing it in the video. TUNE?. Sounds good .

My main concern is drone. I haven't seen any videos or reviews with a 10 series installed though. I think the 70 would be a little too tame for my taste though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Did you end up doing this? Does anyone have any clips of a 2014 with the 10 series?

No, I haven't. Been pretty busy with work, over 12k miles so far, since February.

Just saw your old post, if a 10 may be too loud and a 70 too tame, just do an exhaust cut out or what I call a real dual exhaust system, put in a cutout after the headers join together and have 2 mufflers, both leading to the same exit points, but have one that gives off a much more tame sound and the other a not so tame sound. I plan to do this eventually on my 14' I think it would be much smarter to do that. Just incase you ever don't want to catch a cop on a bad day or completely PO all the neighbors, you can have the tame exhaust sound, or when you want to just hear the engine roaring, you can have that too.

I just installed the Magnaflow 15318 and it sounds really deep and kind of mellow quieter than I thought it would be with that 4" pipe. Headers go on this weekend

Good thing to be busy with...

 

I haven't been able to find any clips of the 14' 5.3L w/ the 10 series but I went ahead and ordered the outlaw system. Should be here next week sometime, I'll post some clips after the install if anyone is interested.

Very true!

 

That would be much appreciated. Hope you like it.

I got the Gibson single swept side exhaust. It sounds good with a nice deep burble. Unfortunately the V4 drone is horrible. The pipes and muffler were heavy gauge stainless. Easily better than a Flowmaster setup. The clamps Gibson includes with the kit are garbage. I managed to snap one of the U-bolts with nothing more than a 1/2" ratchet. I ended up ordering a couple Walker lap joint band clamps and Permetex exhaust sealant. Exhaust note sounds much better with a proper seal.

Can you post some videos on yours?? Debating the single or dual side exhaust but I can't find any clips of both.

I'll work on getting a video up this week.

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
