Fired right up, drove it around the block BUT man it's loud a/f


The Speed Engineering dual tailpipes wouldn't fit between the bed and the rear axle housing. So it's headers, X- pipe and dual mufflers. Tomorrow morning it's going the the muffler shop for tailpipes.


Pulling a vacume on the a/c system and hopefully the ride tomorow will be comfortable... except for the noise!


Ill post a vid before and after the exhaust work.

The plastic interior panel beneath the back glass buzzes and rattles like somebitch now! I need to stuff some foam or something behind it

My point and shoot audio kinda sucks

Looks and sound great. Had to say what a clean install. I always thought the GMC front ends looked better.

Looks good. But don't get addicted to power. It's a sick and expensive thing.

Hey yeah small world lol...

I'm having issues with a mid throttle stumble. My wideband drops really rich in the 9's during the stumble. I've been told I need to lower the power enrichment settings. I bought the older MPVI Hp Tuners interface and going to try to get it running better.

In the mean time I've been put on the waiting list for October at PCM of NC for a dyno tune. Your tuning guy is still at the hospital with his injured son. On facebook I read he was starting to do some street tuning though, I hope the best for his family.

Did the stall work out for your truck?
