2017 Silverado 5.3 ProCharger with Corsa dB.


Gorske

Today I had my new Corsa dB cat-back installed. I had the chance to get this system at a very good price and wanted to try it out. Truck still has the stock manifolds and cats. I did do a 3rd cat delete. I think on the outside the Corsa is a little louder than my previous Black Widow setup but it is quieter on the inside with minimal drone. I think I choose wisely for my first cat-back system. First is a cold start and driving video of my old setup, and the same with the new setup.

Sick truck man. out of curiosity, what fuel mileage are you seeing with the procharger? also did you change any other aspects of the intake besides necessary parts in the procharger kit?

Being how ProCharger designed the surge system on these kits the truck produces no boost under normal driving so you maintain your regular mpg and it pretty much drives stock until you give it fully throttle. Even with the stall and e35 I've been getting 16 city and 19 hwy. On 93 I was seeing 18 city and as high as 21 hwy. As far as the intake it still has the stock throttle body and manifold. Only mods are the kit with a GreenFilter, Circle D stall, OEM flex fuel kit, Corsa cat-back, and a Klug Performance tune. Everything else on the truck is stock.

Love the sound of the Corsa!  Sounds a little deeper and more cleaner than the Black Widow, but I think the mounting location of the camera maybe has a little bit to do with it.  Regardless, good choice!  I should have went with this system considering how much I spent on the tip, muffler, and the shop to weld it in and delete resonator.  Would have been like another $150 to $200 probably lol oh well. Still loving the venom 250.

 

I want to so badly come out your way to get a tune from Klug and setup with e85... must resist though as I don't want to lose this warranty.  Just had all the lifters replaced on driver side and a pushrod replaced! yikes! #warranty

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
