5.3l with stock muffler, resonator, and valve cut off. I welded in a flowmaster 40 series. Gives the v8 muscle car sound. There was a little drone until the muffler was broke in... Now there is nothing. When your not on the throttle it's just a little rumble. When you hit it good it sounds like it should! I can post a video in am if you like...

I chopped both the muffler and the valve off and I personally think it sounds great. I drove from San Diego to Mississippi and back and it didn't bother me.    As far as DoD (aka AFM?), they

So I did a muffler delete recently and just a straight pipe but kept the resonator on the rear. I’m getting a lot cab noise should I put a high flow muffler instead?     Sent from my iPhone using Tap

Put on a small magnaflow or borla XR1 muffler. Something that is straight through.

No once at speed it gets quiet unless you put your foot into it.

I did the same with my set up 6.2 L with a 12909 Magnaflow 3.5". Remove OEM muffler, resonator and flapper valve... I have not looked back... At first I did the muffler delete with resonator in place and it was too loud for the neighborhood along with v4 mode drone. Now v4 is not a big deal as I notice it about like stock. Good luck with your choice.

Do you have any sound clips? I have the 12909 with flapper removed and resonator still on. I am considering removing the resonator for a little extra sound.

I had muffler delete on my 14 GMC as an experiment before going with a performance muffler. It wasn’t loud really after initial start up. Lite sound cruising, more on throttle. The resonator is really no different than a glass pack. Then you add the cats can’t expect too much noise. Evidently I put a performance muffler on, it went back to stock sounding. At 59 years old my loud exhaust was a thing of the past for a daily driver. As far as sound quality that’s in the ear of the beholder.

      Immobilizer Data-Battery Voltage

      By Aussie2500HD · Posted

      Hi All, I’m In need of advice regarding a scan result on my 2023 Silverado HD.  Sensor Supply voltage relay states ON But…. the following 3 tests show Malfunction. Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit HIGH voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit LOW voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit OPEN test status - Malfunction. No DTC codes are stored. No DIC Lights. Remote Key Fob has been giving a few issues, namely Vehicle will not respond to an Open/Lock command from the key fob. New batteries installed to FOB made no difference, plus on one occasion recently the vehicle unlocked using the Fob, the vehicle started normally via the push button, then a random warning came up on the DIC stating the Remote Key was not found, all this while the key was located next to the central cup holders. Does anyone have any input or advice regarding this scenario? TIA

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.
