If you have picky neighbors they may start to hate you. I know its not cat back loud but its louder with valve open on cold start

I have a 950hp Camaro that they already dislike. I could throw open headers on the Tahoe and they’d still be happier with me lol
But good information nonetheless!

Been a while trying to get back in the mod groove but keeping busy with work and several other fronts. Picked up a full set of apliques that install along the side windows. It all started when one of the apliques came loose.

The nut is bonded on and the small clips are basically one time use. I am sure there is a way to repair (better adhesive product) but I don't have the time nor the patience. Picked up new ones, color matched and installed them.

Drove 600 miles through the Arizona desert (122°) towing a trailer full of furniture and other things. I kept an eye on the transmission fluid temp the whole time. Mostly hovered around 187°-192° but going up some steep hills or sitting in traffic in Phoenix it would climb up to 205°-210° and once I started moving again it would cool back down to ~190°. Once I’m back home I think I’m going to remove the thermostat on the transmission because I think that’ll help it run cooler from what I’ve read on here and other forums.44F298F1-7C0A-4482-B6EC-6A4298EFF5DB.jpeg

he is referring to keeping OPEN the exhaust flapper valve, this is a pressure controlled flapper that moves under exhaust pressure, helps kill drone on a NON DOD vehicle...

if you have not disabled the DOD you may not wan to perform this mod, it will sound odd when DOD kicks down to 4 cyl

Tune will only disable it, real dod delete kit will cost you $1500+ in parts, than its deleted for good
