I have a question. I have 2015 Chevy Silverado rally 2 edition. It has the stock 22' black wheels, it's black with the ghost racing stripes, and bowtie, blacked out grill, 5.3 L v8 and 4×4. "Which is as I understand a 325 cu in." I bought the truck used in 2020 with 70 k miles. I honestly didn't know it was a rally when I bought it. I just thought it was regular Silverado with custom work from gm. Anyways my question is does the rally 2 have any engine or transmission upgrades? Or is it same HP and torque as the regular 5.3? Which is 355hp. I'm never hard on it. I don't hot ride it or let rpms get pass 3500 as long as I can help it. But I've got on it a couple times. Once against another 5.3 Chevy and other against a 2022 new mustang convertible and I pulled them both by a couple car lengths easily. I look at engine and don't see any turbo or superchargers but it's without a doubt faster then other 5.3 . I know I'll probably get hell for asking this lol. I'm no mechanic. I'm a part changer. I can take off and replace any part but as understand no mechanic. Just asking because I'm curious and can't find any info on book or the web thanks

Welcome to the site.

 

Decals, wheels with red strips, no performance upgrades of any sort. Still a great looking truck though!

Congratulations on your new to you truck!

What's that?  Stickers don't make cars faster?  Since when?  LOL

 

Donald, these trucks came with several different gearing options as well.  Even if yours isn't tuned, if it has lower (higher numerically gear ratios) it will accelerate faster than one with higher gear (numerically lower gear ratios).

 

Does your glovebox still have a sticker with a bunch of codes on it?  If so, tell us what the "G" codes are.

 

Let's see a pic of it when you can, don't recall that edition.

Very true, it could be gearing. My Z-66 Avalanche has the 373 gear. It’s pretty snappy. My last new Texas Edition had a higher number gear. Part of the package.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      JR ! I just got the truck back from the Dealership today . The technician did a cold remote start on the truck this morning and it made the noise . It was determined that it was a starter issue and replaced it under warranty . Of course   it did not make the sound after a new starter was put in because the truck was not cold . We will we see what happens tomorrow morning when I start the truck cold  . Keep tuned !   Oh I found a video on YouTube of a cold start and it did the same thing your truck and mine do , I will see if I can find it and post it up
