Yes from 2000-5000rpms unless you're towing 7400 lbs for 2-3 hours.

Have a 5.3L 2015

 

Ran with a Borla S-Type (removed flapper and resonator) for 2 weeks now and just cannot get over how bad the V4 sounds. V8 is mint which is a drag.

 

Ordered the GM-Borla kit that has the valve to control drone/helicopter noise.

 

 

QUESTION: has anyone installed this kit, then swapped out the muffler for an S-type?

You have the full catback Borla S-Type? Or just muffler? I have the full set w/ Air Raid MIT Tube and I get zero drone in V4.

I got mine from Auto anything for a little less than the Summit price...I called and talked with an operator and was able to do better than the published price.

Do you do anything to the valve to get rid of the helicopter noise? I see it is spring loaded, but cant turn or pull it out anymore?

Any Black Friday deals?? The only one I see is 4wheel parts no sales tax and free shipping $999.99 out the door

Guys, I finally pulled the trigger and ordered the Borla S-Type exhaust for my 2014 Z71 Silverado.  I took it to a local shop as I didn't want to do this in my driveway.  However, when it came time to mount the left exhaust hangar that Borla provides, I did not have a hole in my frame like the video shows.  We ended up drilling a hole but the exhaust sticks out too far.  Any suggestions?  Btw, it sounds sick!!

Sounds like you got duals out the back? Make sure all of the connections are fully seated. If still too far out then just cut the pipe. Not sure why it would be sticking out too far as the last pipe section is supposed to still be under the bed and what sticks out are the exhaust tips...unless it's for a longer bed.

    • 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?
