aFe Mach Force Exhaust 2014-15 5.3 Sierra/Silverado


Recommended Posts

Posted

I sold my truck and got a 2015 Sierra 6.2 (which is a totally different design and wont work). Therefore I want to sell this exhaust setup. The part number is 49-44038-P which fits both the 143.5 and 153" wheel base (has the extention pipe included). Exhaust was on the truck for almost a year to the day and has no dents or other issues other than normal wear and tear. Exhaust tip is still in great condition. New, these systems can be had new for $381 + shipping from what I can see which is more than the $429 I paid for it a year ago. I'm willing to let it go for $300 + actual shipping charges.

Still for sale, V4 drone is almost non existent. I took a video before I removed it that I can send to a serious buyer.

I have this same exhaust on my truck and there is no drone in V4. I like it. The exhaust has a nice sound and isn't annoying loud. I have been very happy with it. This exhaust installs very easy. Bump for a good product.

Send me the video of the nonexistent drone

SirManny, are you interested in purchasing the exhaust or just wanting to hear it? Unfortunately I posted this for sale back in Dec of 2014 and no longer have the phone with the video nor do I own the truck.

 

Maybe hemipowered22z would be nice enough to take a video of his truck in V4 mode and post it?

 

I assure you that while you could tell it was in V4 mode (just as you can with stock exhaust) the pulsing drone that is associated with louder aftermarket exhausts is virtually non existent with the aFe. Might be because its a relatively quiet exhaust compared to most. I can say that my MBRP on my 2015 with the 6.2 (which has active noise cancellation) definitely has more V4 drone that the aFe did but its tolerable to me.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
