Does anyone have a Magnaflow system?

 

I was doing some more searching and ran across this system from Summit Racing:

 

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mpe-15330/applications/year/2014/make/gmc/model/sierra-1500

 

 

Looks really nice and it's about $300 cheaper than Corsa/Borla systems.

 

Any pros/cons for Magnaflow vs Corsa/Borla?

 

Appreciate any input

i have had the magnaflow way to much drone in the cab i have also had the corsa sport and db no drone at all in the cab i think this time i am going to try the borla exhaust

Thanks for the reply.

 

That's exactly what I wanted to hear.

 

I think I'm gonna go with the Corsa system.

 

Borla doesn't offer a Crew Cab Standard box system, I'd have to modify the short box exhaust or get the GM Borla system with the touring muffler.

 

I want that mid range muffler, not too loud, but not soft.

 

Looks like Corsa for me.

all you need to for the borla is to add 10 inches to the front pipe thats what i am going to do borla said they will have the exhaust for our trucks later this year

Oh ok. I talked to Borla earlier this month and they said they weren't coming out with a kit for the CC Standard Box in the near future.

 

I don't understand why they don't do what Corsa does and include the optional piece, so the kit works for both short box and standard box. No need for separate kits.

 

I still think I'm going the Corsa route, I just love their sound, that video posted above pretty much sold me.

 

 

Also, I was wondering if anyone who has a 2014+ Sierra/Silverado has a car cover?

 

I want to get one for my Denali and was wondering what a good brand was? I unfortunately can't fit this boat into my garage, it's too long.

After doing a lot of research, I've found LMPeformance to be the cheapest source for the Corsa exhaust, model# 14866

 

http://www.corsaperformance.com/viewpart.aspx?year=2014&make=GMC&model=Sierra&enginetype=6.2L+V8&wb=153%22&partnum=14866&cfg=1479#

 

LMPerformance:

 

http://www.lmperformance.com/660483

 

$1,160 shipped (no CA tax)

 

 

Anyone dealt with this company before?

 

Summit Racing was $1,257 shipped (no CA tax), they don't show them on their website, but can drop ship them from Corsa.

 

AutoAnything was $1,259 shipped (with CA tax)

 

 

Leaning towards purchasing from LMPerformance, but was hoping to get some input from anyone who's dealt with them before ordering.

 

Thanks

Didn't know that, thanks.

 

I've never ordered from them before.

I installed the Magnaflow 15318 - 4" cat back yesterday $863.26 from Auto Parts Warehouse. I didn't like the look of the 5" tip so i switched it out for a plain 4"er.

GM has a Borla system for the Denali crew cab for both 5.3L and 6.2L... sounds like Borla isn't releasing that kit to the public and only reselling through GM... I got mine dealer installed with black chrome tips.

Nice.

 

Nice to see a picture of the full exhaust system.

 

What's that secondary muffler towards the back? Is that to help with the back pressure?

 

How's the drone so far? Have you taken it on the highway yet?

Yeah I talked to them about that. I didn't know it was specific to the Denali.

 

I believe that system goes for $1300+

 

I really wish I could hear a system in person before I buy.

 

I'm still leaning towards Corsa, that YouTube video has me sold.

It's a dealer option for $1249 or whatever you can negotiate... the dealer had mine the next day out of an Orlando warehouse so they are readily available. Don't think it is specific to Denali, should be available for all of the Sierra 5.3L and 6.2L builds...the point I was making is that I believe it is only available through a GM dealer... can't even find it on GMPartsDirect.com. When I spoke with Borla about registering my cat back exhaust the rep knew the part #s for the exhaust and the tips but said they didn't sell them. I got the system registered so it is in the Borla catalog...

It is a resonator, I believe it tunes the sound of the exhaust.

V4 drone occurs between 50 - 55 mph, can be overcome by

driving in M5. Sounds really nice accelerating from 50 to 80.

Otherwise it can be driven quietly if you don't exceed half throttle.

I did hollow out the 3rd cat, I'm not sure what effect that has.

Has anybody just removed the muffler and kept the flapper on a 6.2? Curious about the volume and drone.

I should clarify, remove ONLY the muffler, keep EVERYTHING else including the flapper and resonator.

To clarify a bunch of earlier posts, the borla cat back systems sold by gm / gmpp are made for all models and have seperate tip options, they sound close to borlas touring exhaust sound . 1249 + tips. Those systems made exclusively for gm and have a flapper valve built in.

The exhaust sold on Borla website are different and the have 3 sound types and tips welded on. I ordered the ATAK for 6.2 a month ago for $1151 free shipping, i still have not got it due to mine will be the 1st produced as per Borla rep, they plan on making it on the 18th and I should have by the 30th. I will post video and give you guys feedback as soon as I get it.

    • Because single shot injectors are ancient and multi hole injectors provide smoother running engines and sharper throttle response due to the fuel being atomized better..the best lead I have is a 24lb blue top injector almost everything matches up but the injector will put out about 26lb/hr which is just outside the gm threshold.figured id ask here to see if there was an absolute answer
    • Why is my question?   Any change in injectors requires a tune. Unless you are going back with the OEM part number or a newer part number of that same injector.   Any size difference or type difference like the EV6 style injectors all have different injector data for them. And there is no EV6 injector that matches the factory 25 lb/hr size that your truck comes with. I've been messing with these trucks and tuning them for a long time and what you trying to do doesn't exactly make sense to me.
    • My 6.6 gas lt8 had lifter noise with 28000 miles bought new 2026 and while driven to dealer it threw #1 rod bearing “HD my ass” good luck with yours i hope it don’t turn a rod bearing!
    • When a condition becomes a business model.    https://www.gm-trucks.com/gm-truck-suv-incentives-pricing-2026/   Zane posted this in "Latest Articles".    The honest bottom line   Truck buyers have spent three years assuming this is a temporary condition that will break once inventories normalize. GM just presented it to investors as a durable strategy, on a chart, as evidence of good management.   Inventory did normalize. GM is at 511,000 units and squarely inside its own 50 to 60 day target. The discounts still did not come back, because the low incentive number is the goal rather than a symptom of shortage.   Plan your purchase around that reality instead of waiting for it to change. Follow our ongoing GM News coverage for pricing and incentive changes as the next-generation trucks land.
    • Thought it was raining this morning when we woke. Nope. Dew point was over 80 F and humidity 98%. Zero visibility distance. Everything was 'sweating'. I've seen rain come out of clouds but never out of Pepper or the tree trunks.    Wicked storms just missed us sliding off to the east but by blocks. Heat index about 110 F with air temp in the 90's.    This is  our third wave this month of multiple days of this type of weather. And yet the grass is going dormant and the ground is cracking this side of the street and water up the the hood opposite. Just weird stuff going on.
