It's true though. You need some back pressure and with a stock V8 the best is either a single 3" or dual 2 1/2".

Back pressure is a myth

Scavenging isn't thou… The flow of exhaust gases needs to be smooth and fluid throughout the pipes, if the exhaust gets to0 big the exhaust gases start to swirl and become harder to get out. Causing your engine to loss power… There's a happy medium between volume and flow for exhaust, and depending on the engine output, that's the size of exhaust you need… 300-500hp is about 2.5" duals or 3" single

I like them, they keep the back of my cab free of junk. On my old truck I had so much crap on the floor people couldn't sit there.

It is better than the OEM back up camera quality. Which is a little disappointing that i thought it was an expensive addon. I cant remember how much it cost though.

Wonder if it would be possible to upgrade the back up camera then?

That'd be awesome!

but I think it would be unnecessary if you just have enough lighting. it is just that the camera is not as good in night time. The wiring for the back up camera is more complicated to reverse engineer I think. you would need the built in computer to use the aftermarket signal etc...

Well, I am curious to see how you got the front one working.

did this with mine, onlys got 26000 on it and it was just as bad. and i found a dead mouse and a bunch of nesting gross shit. i couldn't believe it! i keep it in a heated garage every night and take good care of the truck, unbelievable! will definitely be changing this more often now! especially when its only a 15 dollar part

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
