2014+ Exhaust Systems & Mufflers

He is very knowledgeable. I didnt ask about the back pressure loss but did pick his brain about headers and gears as well as tuning.

When i go home i am willing to take the drive.... All 5ish hours just to get a good tune.... I have done it before. Lol

Yeah it's 10 hours from me or else I would make the drive.

I wouldn't be buying my magnaflow set up i'm getting put on today. I'd be going straight to him.

I dont agree with the exhaust being 4" on a 5.3 but he swears by it and well he has the dyno sheets.... But the black truck he dynoed over 400rwhp on bolt oms and a cam had a magnaflow catback.

True. If I hadn't just bought a new truck I may have thought about buying that one from him. Thing was sweet.

I'm going with a 3" to 14" Magnaflow and 3" single out the back and cutting out the third cat. Should be picking it up here in a bit. I'm pretty pumped to see how it turned out.

Haha you bet! I was bouncing back and forth for a long time.

I'm out in Lubbock and the shop here is doing the whole set up for $300 and I wanted a magnaflow for the performance aspect of it (Seeing chuck's truck with a magnaflow and 400 rwhp with bolt ons helped with that decision). and at $300 it's a heck of a lot cheaper than a lot of set ups i've seen for order.

This guy does great work too. I'll have pictures maybe by lunch and i'll do some sound clips today or tomorrow as well.

Thanks man.... I plan on doing the whole thing stainless... That said i have yet to price it out but i think ill be close to the catback price. It will be hooked up to a set of American Racing Headers 1 7/8 with an ORY that are just sitting at home waiting for me.

Well, i couldnt take it...i installed my gibson metal mulisha cat back on saturday, and i just re-installed my factory exhaust...truck was running and shifting really strange and was constantly trying to stay in v4 mode...had to drive across town today and it shifted to quick in lower gears and held to long in higher gears when id hit an open stretch of road...im gonna contact hhp in houston and see what options they have,but im in so ill so a trip for a dyno tune is out...maybe a programmer, eliminate v4 mode and try it again later...it sure did sound good though under throttle and at idle..best sounding exhaust ive heard on a small block...just not enough back pressure with the 4" catback without some tuning.

If you don't mind, please let us know how it turns out and how good his mail order tunes are!

Good luck! I'd love to hear that exhaust! I'm loving my new set up so far!

Well I don't have a ton to post but I got a couple clips for you.

Headphones give the most accurate tone for the exhaust, but the first video from inside the cab, they make it sound a lot louder than it actually is.

It sounds killer when you get on it. Cruising at 65 yesterday I couldn't hear it with the radio on.

And V4 mode really isn't bad at all.

And it may just be a convenient coincidence, but my 25mile mpg avg went up almost 3 mpg already with typical driving in the city i do almost every day.

I'll let you know if that holds true.

Yup... He has sold it and has a 2015 denali 6.2 now.

He had an 18" magnaflow 3" muffler with the exit done in 4" to a 5" tip

Damn that thing sounds sexy. Can never get enough of it.

Tell me about it.... It was a custom grind cam from KHP in the RGV and tuned by Tellez Motorsports.

Its all the rage in the valley.... Custom grind cams just for the sound. Tbh.... Thats why i want it too.... Just reliability on these DI engines with a cam is my main concern.
