Dual Exhaust Kit Question

Posted

Personally I’d have been upset if I had spent the money on this exhaust. It came with my truck but I verified it’s the GM version as I found the receipt for it. I’ve even bypassed the valve in hopes it would be louder but it’s not. I reached out to Borla to see if I could swap the mufflers but they don’t sell those separately and I’m not going to drop $1600 on another one. Hopefully the headers will add the volume I’m looking for.

I believe I've seen Borla CrateMufflers for sale on Summit Racing for about $240ish. I found a Borla Atak 3 inch inlet for like $250 a while ago but decided to go with Carven.

You can buy Borla mufflers all day. But the one with the kit is a single in dual out and has pre bent pipes welded to the outlets. So I could buy another muffler and have new piping bent and welded in or just live with it and wait and see what the headers do for the sound. Not worth the effort for me at this point to get something new. I’ve got the Atak on my charger and it’s freaking awesome and has zero cab noise. I’d love it on this truck.

Disconnect parts of the exhaust starting with the muffler and keep moving up the exhaust until you get the sound you want, and then install this kit at that spot. Set it for the default to be open. When your up to speed or on the freeway, flip the switch and your exhaust goes back to full stock to eliminate the drone.

I called Borla.  They confirmed that the GM Borla is what I want.  They also confirmed that it's the valve that makes the difference (when it drops to 4cly).  

 

They confirmed that as long as it is an "official GM product" that it WILL have the valve and that you do NOT have to buy it directly from a dealer parts dept for this.  He confirmed that Summit racing is ONE that has the "official GM" Borla exhaust and that it DOES have the valve.   Anyone that sells what would be "official GM" Borla exhaust, WILL have the valve.

 

This is what I will go with and will post back once I have it done and complete.  

 

Good stuff here!
