Just the tip(s)…

[OnTheReel]

Installed the bolt-on Borla black chrome exhaust tips today. Subtle but I like them a lot more than the cheap looking barbecue painted stock ones. Adds a little bling.

Keep us posted on your findings as well. will do. I would have had it done already but like an idiot I pulled one of the wires out of the deutsch connector. Then broke the plastic retainer clip trying to get it off. I'm waiting on the mail to deliver a new connector.

I did snap a quick photo with one stock and one Borla.

I like how you called the stock ones bbq painted. If you want the new ones to stay shiny and nice looking I suggest ceramic coating them. If not they finish will go bad quickly

I used some ceramic wheel coating on them. Should take the heat and hold up just fine. I’ll keep them fairly clean in the winter but I hope the price reflects a durable finish either way.

Have you noticed any change in sound? I have seen a post of FB where the guy swears it has a deeper sound because the stock ones are not 5” i.d. I belive this because on my 2016 I put bigger tips and with out a doubt the sound changed….not saying it was louder but the sound definitely changed.

Guess I’m not alone then. I didn't say anything because it didn’t completely make sense, but I noticed right away the tone had changed. It was 90 degrees when I put them on, and even after everything was up to temp driving around, the exhaust sounded more like it does when the weather (and engine) is cold. Maybe a bit louder, but definitely “different”. Lower and more aggressive.

I don’t have ANC anymore so every little change is perceptible.

A couple other people on the other forum asked for a link to these tips. If they install them maybe I’ll see if they notice the same. I guess not only the diameter is different, but the transition too. And rolled edge vs straight edge. The stock tip is like double walled in some places too.

Glad to hear……i think they would just enhance the sound of the slp loudmouths that I have

I was eyeing up the loudmouths but probably not a good idea since I’m already a bit annoyed by the drone when towing…

I honestly have no complaints with the sound of my truck but a deeper tone probably wouldn‘t offend me
