I really want to do a catback on my 2019 6.2 High Country but I can't seem to find any options other than the Corsa and GM performance. I am looking for a touring tone, nothing overly aggressive. Does anyone on here have a crew cab standard bed? Which exhaust system did you go with?

The GM one is going to give you a "touring" type sound, so more growl but still very tame when cruising, zero drone, etc.  Corsa is the sport system.  Plenty of growl when you are in it, zero drone, and suprisingly tame when cruising.  Corsa almost makes it seem like you've got a dual mode exhaust on like Corvette/Camaro.  I myself have the Corsa Sport and love it.  Corsa has a rebate going right now too I think $125. 

 

I myself am not a fan of the tone that Borla produces.  Too bass/deep for me.  They claim no drone, but the one I rode in had some mild drone in spots in the RPM range.  Corsa has much less bass and way more bark/crisp and clean sound to it and makes it sound like a 6th gen Camaro or C7 Corvette.

Thanks! I really like the sound of the Borla S-Type but on their website I only see models for the short bed.

I have the GM.  I like it.  Might want to just cut out the stock muffler/flappers and straight pipe it through the resonators.

I’ve been researching the same thing, but for 5.3. I emailed Carven to see if they were working on a setup for the crew cab standard bed, and they replied maybe down the road. I found Kooks makes a cat back with the option of buying an extension pipe for our setup. I logged in tonight to see if there’s anyone on this site running a kooks catback.

Yes! Other than the GM and Borla that I see on Chevy's website I can not find anyone selling a catback system for long wheel base trucks. I dont want to pay the MSRP that GM is asking for their setup or their markup on the borla. 

I guess I will just wait.

Looks like GM Performance and the Corsa sport are the only 2 options currently for the Crew Cab Standard Bed trucks....I guess I am waiting it out

I have a carven catback progressive series. Very mild and can be had for less the $600. Doesn't have any flappers so it does make a little helicopter noise without dfm disabled. 

 

Edit- sorry guess mine is the short bed and you're asking about the longer one.

I recently picked up the Borla Touring series for my cc/std bed.  i'll post up more details this afternoon, but all you need to add is an approximately 8" length of straight pipe (3.5")  from behind the muffler to the exhaust that goes up over the axle.  I'll probably just have it welded to the muffler, although may did a slip joint - not sure yet.    I'll have more details later today.  Just to be clear, this is for the Touring muffler.

Got the pipes installed and here is a pic that shows how much of a gap there is.   I'll probably just weld on a 9" stub to the muffler.

 

Hope this helps someone down the road....

      Tire psi

      By jgaudet99 · Posted

      My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page

      Gas Prices

      We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money".

      Tire psi

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
