I have dynomax ultra flo ss mufflers on my 1999 6.0l and would not trade the sound or performance for any of the previous mufflers I had on ( flowmaster, magnaflow ). They are the offset inlet and center outlet part number 17289, quiet up to 3000 rpm's with deep powerful sound after 3000 rpm.

 

What performance gain did you see?

 

 

I got .2 seconds reduction on 0-60 on my G-tech meter, this is going from a single large magnaflow 22" case lenght with two 2.5" inlets and one 3.5" outlet to the dual 2.5" Dynomax mufflers. The funny thing is that it's quieter too and a more refined deep sound than a loud raspy sound.

 

 

Ok, thanks.

 

Anyone measure the back pressure of the stock system?

I just have a 2000 5.3 but the Gibbsons I have is awesome! Quite at low RPM and nice and throaty at high. It coast more but I get 2-3 more MPG and its been on my truck since 2001 with no cracks or brakes in it. And you don't hear it at all on the high way.

I would say Gibson or Borla. . . There is a reason they coast more. But Don't get me wrong. . . back when I was younger I loved the sound of Flow master. And if its installed rite its an awesome way to go. If you don't mind the deep loud throatynes of it.

Either way it just depends on what you want. . . Deep loud, Throaty with Flowmaster or Quitit tell you want it with Gibsons or Borla. You just have to hear um all.

And as long as you have it installed rite. It should last.

You swapped from a stock exhaust to an aftermarket and your MPG went up 50%.

 

Right.

I recommend they have the pipes exit into the cab so they can roll the windows up when they need it to be quieter.

This is the first 2500 HD I have every owned and would really like to put dual exhaust on it, but was wondering what the best exhaust for the money would be? BTW it has the 6.0L. I really like the way it sounds now, not extremly loud, but you can definately hear it.

 

I would like to pair this up with a cold air intake, but not sure if doing either of these will void any warranties?

:cool:

hello there l have a 2006 hd sierra, what you truck guys are missing is that when your catalytic converters plugup your exhaust is not working very well,l'm thinking of magnaflow catback system,l know there is some cutting of the pipes but they don't offer what l'm after,so look's like l'll be cutting some of pipe no problem.l know the sound will come out great!don't be scared to change out your catalytic converters too.l had a 97 chevy sliverado and change the cats with new flow-master big differance.sold the truck milage was high sorry to let go but l'm happy with my new beast.when add cold with exhaust you will notice a big differance in power!there is no need for power chips or programers you can achive stock power with exhaust and cold-air intakes.

      Replacing 2.7L on 2021 Silverado with 2023 2.7L

      I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
