I had 2 Super 40s on my 98 and even though it was a decent sound, it wasn't close to being loud enough. That's why when I had the exhaust done on my '14 I had a Super 44 single in/dual out and it's perfect for me. Being that it's a quiet cab it's not that loud in the cab unless I get on it. I only need the XM volume at about 1/4-1/3. It's loud enough even at idle that I can remote start it on the street while I'm in the opposite side of the house or from my backyard and I hear it just fine.

Can you post a video of your truck. I am torn between the super 40 or 44...

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Not sure how the 98 was but on my tundra I had two super 40s and they were pretty loud. Not obnoxious but loud enough to when if I was on the throttle nobody could hear me on the phone until I got to my cruising speed.

I love the 44 over the 40. A little ouder and more aggressive.

Well they were kind of loud, just not loud enough for me. It might have had something to do with 2 mufflers instead of just one. I hear that 1 muffler is louder than 2 mufflers.

Took a short 320 mile trip over to Houston and back today. Thought I'd road test my new Bilstein 5100's. They really make a difference with a more controlled ride over the bumps (didn't feel like a "bobble-head").

Very pleased. And the Michelins held the road through all of the rain! It's A shame it didn't come this way to begin with.

Had the A.R. E. Z series top and bedrug installed. Took a little longer to install as there was 8 inches on snow in the bed and they had to dry and prep the bed. Truck handles different but for the better with the top on. The DIC showing 17 MPGs.

So finally got my exhaust done. Went with an 18" Magnaflow Muffler, removed resonator, and valve. Sounds great and those Corsa tips are a beauty.

Haha, we'll see. So far I really like how the 18" sounds. Its got a very nice deep tone but its not overbearingly loud. So far its perfectly quiet during highway and street driving and only comes to life when I get on the throttle. Its my daily driver and I drive allot, don't want to turn it into something I'm not going to like driving.

 

Also, it might just be me but the butt dyno really feels an increase in partial throttle torque and horsepower around 3 to 4krpm. Definitely, feels like its breathes better.

 

Probably just me though.

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
