I think that looks awesome. How much did it cost you? Do you have any video clips and link to part #?

Thanks man. I actually work for a GMC Dealership so it didn't cost me that much. I painted all the emblems too. But the powder coat on the exhaust tips only cost $60. https://www.hottexhaust.com/Magnaflow_19491 Here is the link for the muffler delete kit that I ordered. This company gives you a 20% OFF code if you submit your email so it was only $209. Once I have everything done I will post some vids for all to check out.

When I look up the part # you gave it looks to be the dual out version. Is this what you have?

Yeah I have the dual exhaust. If you have something else you can put in your vehicles info on their site and it will give you the right part.

Thanks for the info. Can’t wait to hear how it sounds. Are you doing the install yourself?

Zero drone at any speed. Roar only happens when I star the truck or punch the gas. Perfect balance. 


I forgot to ask, did you remove the flapper or kept it on

I powder coated the tips on my AT4 and I think they look great! What do y'all think? Also I opted for the magnaflow muffler delete kit.

Looks good! I’m wanting to powder coat mine as well. I haven’t got a chance to look under the truck yet, but what goes into removing the exhaust tips? Thanks

They actually made it pretty hard on this new body style. You have to remove the whole bumper in order to get them off.

When I PC’d mine a couple months back I did not remove the whole bumper. I used a 1/4” air ratchet to remove them.

Thanks @ian@borla i've been waiting to see more about these!!

 

Any sound clips and performance specs coming soon? 

 

Also it looks like the pipes curve differently at the end when comparing "Factory Tips" and "Borla Round Tips". So don't purchase factory planning to add aftermarket later. 

 

Thanks!!

Here's what I got after contacting Borla:  "Thank you for your interest in our exhaust!  Your will see a gain of up to 12 horsepower with any of these systems and we will have a demo video available soon.  I am also glad to say that there is absolutely no drone in either the Touring or S-type system and no valve is required!"

Love the square tips! Not the chrome part. Unfortunate they don’t offer those in black so looks like I’d have to powder coat, or similar, them myself.

Pretty pricey.. Guess I've found my first truck I won't be putting a Borla on.

    • Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-
    • Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.     
    • I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
    • I do too. I’ll never be stuck again 😂
    • It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
