- 2002 Silverado 2500HD 6.0 with full exhaust
- Carven R Performance Muffler
- Cherrybomb resonators
- Amazon X-Pipe
- Flowtech shorty headers
Added the X-pipe recently to help out with the back pressure and also some drone. Inside the cab the drone was a bit annoying and after adding the X-Pipe under the passenger side front portion of the cab I noticed a big difference in the sound. I no longer have the “popping” sound while driving or “raspy” sound throughout the RPMs. The sound is still aggressive but a bit more subtle and definitely more tolerable while driving around town.
I may change the set up again, but for now I’m pretty happy with the sound! Hopefully everyone enjoys the small clips I was able to take.
If anyone wants more clips of the sounds let me know and I’ll be glad to put another video together.
That's the correct wheel an tire combo right there!
Thank you!
Awsome wheel combo, I need this set up for my 2002 2500hd silverado 4x4 w/factory lift, which is kind of pretty high already for minor flood waters living down here in the south! May I ask you about the name, brand, and selection that you went with? These are looking like the wheels I'm willing to swap out my stock set up with! Please send any info on your wheels if possible! Thanks......
@@sidneymeyer9014 I definitely like them a lot! I did have to do some trimming on my front bumper and also had to do what people call the “nor-cal” mod. If you look that up you’ll see what you have to cut/notch in order for the tire not to hit the inside of the fender.
They’re Method 315 Wheels. 17x8.5 with Toyo M/T tires 35x12.50R17
If you’re not wanting to do much cutting, you can do a 33x12.50 and possibly just need to cut the front bumper slightly so the tire doesn’t rub. Hope this helps!
@@jonathanorona7493 the fitment looks great, curious on what lift you have.
@@Sebastian-bs5dq thanks! I actually do not have a lift on my truck. The rear is factory ride height and the front I cranked up the torsion keys slightly just to get it level.
I’m in love with those wheels
Thanks! They’re definitely one of my favorite wheels
What wheels are they ?
@@bcummins4702 sorry must’ve missed this! They’re Method 315 Wheels. 17x8.5 with Toyo M/T tires 35x12.50R17
Great video. I especially like the interior clip so I can hear what the set up sounds like from the inside.
Thank you for the input, I can try taking more videos with in cab pov soon.
I have a 06 single cab longwheel base with headers no cats x piped and it spunds amazing. I also have msd coil packs just cause they was only 15 dollars more then the oem style ones. Throttle body spacer bigger throttle body and bigger intake manifold with 510 lift cam its sounds great looks like a average old long wheel base farm truck with the 1999-2000s style nrushed aluminum rims and its pretty peppy and surprises eberyone when it gets gling
The 99-07 Classic is my favorite era for the Silverado. Its a toss up for me between the “bubble eye” and the “cat eye” on which one is my actual favorite, but I think the 03-07 classic definitely had a few “modern” upgrades in comparison to the 99-02. How long have you had the MSD coil packs? I’ve always wondered if they were worth the money, but could never find any data logging or reviews on them. You have my favorite wheels! Lol I’ve been looking for a set for a while but when I find them I don’t have the funds and when I have the funds I can’t find a decent pair lol I’m sure you know how that goes. You have a pretty healthy cam, what tuning program are you using?
Sounds good, I like those wheels too bud
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Sounds so good 🔥
Thanks! Hopefully by the end of this year I can get the cam in it and do another video lol
I did the same thing with my truck putting the glass packs and a muffler to take away the clap
Exactly why I did it! It sounded good straight piped but the clap got annoying to me really quick
That sounds good. 👍🏾
Thank you!
Sounds nice.
Search pump rub kit. Save that transfer case !
Thanks you! Is the transfer case the same as what is on the duramax? I seen a few kits but so far says 6.6 but I’m thinking the transfer cases should be the same?
damn that sounds sick inside. well i know what im doing just got a 2000. what xpipe on amazon did you get?
Nice! Here is the x-pipe that I have, but there’s another one that I feel might be better quality, so top link is what I’m running, bottom link is one that looked good too.

@@jonathanorona7493 sick thanks so much i just got me 6.0 a few days ago hahah
@@hybridxsrt4 Nice! Are you going to do headers as well?
Are you having good luck with the flowtech headers ? Nice rig man
Thank you! I haven’t had any issues with them. They’re the ceramic coated ones and the coating is still in tact and hasn’t faded or changed colors on me. Welds are still good and no issues with fitment. For the price, they’ve been good. Long term I would like to change over to some long tubes but for now these have been good and I’ve already had them for just over a year now.
I got the 2007 chevy 2500hd 6.0 gas burnner and man for a long wheel base ots a burn lut contest monster on skid pads cause its sp light being a long wheelbase meaning the rear end is very light. Also it will run mid 11s in 1/4 mile. The vortec based motors is nothing to stick your bose ip at kist cause kts not a diesel. If you was to build a diesel engine 2500 hd to run mid 11s would cost doible of not tripple of what cost of making the 6
6.0 gas burner and the gas burner 6.0 will have twice the amount of power for the same price you would spend on the Diesel.
I love the gassers. They’re under powered in comparison to a duramax but the aftermarket is huge and pretty affordable to make decent street power
Nice, I like the setup. I have an 06 2500HD and want to do something similar, but with dual exits. I've currently got 3" all the way back, with stock cats, and a flowmaster muffler. How do you get around carb with the EGR and Cat delete?
Thank you! A few people have told me about doing the same thing with dual exit, especially since the truck is already true dual so I’ve been debating if I should do it or not. I’m leaning towards keeping it single outlet but changing the muffler to something else.
Nice! I had the same set up on my suburban and I loved the way it sounded like that, kinda miss that sound too! As far as carb goes, I haven’t figured that out just yet. The truck was already smogged prior to the install of everything so I’ll have to figure that out.
@@jonathanorona7493 Yeah, I'd definitely keep that in mind when it comes time to smog it. Emission laws here are strict asf. As is, you probably wouldn't pass a visual test and I'm not sure about the sniffer, but It's possible It wouldn't pass that either. I've heard from people on the forums you can hollow out the stock cats to pass the visual. I've also heard you can get away with mild cams and ports. So long as you have a good tune It'll pass the sniffer. The visual Is important tho. It's pretty wild, even having a cold air intake requires one of those CARB stickers or an EO number.
@@fallenyolo Yeah they’re definitely very strict. I agree about it not passing visual, and at this point I’m pretty certain it wouldn’t pass the tailpipe emissions test either. Good think is I have some time to ponder what I’ll do. Most likely just put the stock components back on prior to smog.
Sounds great! Are those Method wheels? I was thinking about putting them on my 95 silverado.
Thanks! Yes they’re Method 315 wheels
Mines similar but I ran both tailpipes parallel out the back
I’m thinking about doing that next! Right now it’s a y-pipe to a single pipe out obviously but I’m thinking of changing the muffler to a black widow dual in, dual out and having them come out of the same way that you’re saying.
I'm not bashing but I am curious what the point would be in doing all that just to have it come out a single exit? doesn't that defeat the purpose of true dual with X pipe if you are just y piping it back into a single?
I no longer have this particular set up. Now I have a dual in single out muffler
@jonathanorona7493 Was there a particular reason for not going true dual with x pipe all the way out to dual rear exit? That's what I'm looking to do with my truck.
Any issues with fitment on the hd model? Looking to get some longtubes for a 1500hd 6.0 , they say they don’t fit on hd models , we’re shortys your only option?
The shortys were just a good price that’s why I went with them. Fitment is great and I haven’t had any issues with the Flowtech headers. I would love to get long tubes but I’ve read the same about fitment/clearance especially with 4x4 models (which I obviously have) so I haven’t tried it just yet.
Nice wheels an tires man! What size are those tires if you don't mind me asking? Thanks........
Thanks, much appreciated! The wheels are Method 315 - 17x8.5 and the tires are Toyo M/T 35x12.50
Bro she's begging for a cam now😂
Lol 😂 it’s in the works. I have the cam, valve springs, and pushrods. Before doing it I want to get the arp bolt kit, and new water pump/oil pump. So we’re getting there slowly but surely lol
There isn't a cam that increases usable "work truck" power on the 6.0. Any cam he puts in he'll have to spin more RPM to notice any appreciable gain and will lose tq down low where it counts for a truck that does truck things. Unless he wants to put a convertor in it a spin more RPM and turn it into a toy.
@@clys69I was going to get on here and bash the hell out of your comment but I think ill just leave it so everyone else can make their own opinions of the dumb shit you just said
Whats the whole exhaust setup you got goin on if you don’t mind, got a 6.0 and wanted to upgrade my exhaust this summer. Also, do you recommend doing true duals considering it is an X-pipe?
I have Flowtech shorty headers and 2.5” piping (no cats) into the x-pipe then into resonators out into a dual 2.5” inlet single 3” outlet. I would say the xpipe wasn’t necessary. I only tried it because I could never find any good videos on different exhaust set ups for the truck or body style. I think now that I’ve had it, I would probably do the 2.5” piping without the x-pipe and just have the resonators into the muffler.
What size king shocks are those in rear? Are you running kings in front?
I’m not sure about the length but I can attach the link of which ones I bought. They’re King 2.5’s with adjusters. I’m running the same in the front.

Do you she. The part number for the x pipe and cherry bomb resonators?
Here’s the link for both:

In my opinion, I think the xpipe is okay, Magnaflow and Black Widow mufflers make some x-pipes that look a lot better in regards to to the quality when comparing to this Amazon one. I still have the Amazon one installed and haven’t had any issues but just food for thought
Nice I just bought a 02 6.0. how many miles does that motor have?
Nice! The 6.0 is such a work horse. My motor has 187,000. I bought my truck last year and it has 174,000 and it’s been great to me so far.
@@jonathanorona7493I'm at 295k on mine
What's the reason for shorty headers instead of long tubes?
I wasn’t sure if there would be a big difference between the shorty headers and the long tubes. Especially with stock heads/cam etc. once I put my cam in I’ll change over to long tubes.
Hey dude is that ticking coming from your motor I have the same sound and I can’t figure out where it’s coming from?
Yes it is coming from the motor. It’s pretty common on Chevy’s. Once it warms up on mine it goes away. Usually it’s the lifter getting stuck that causes the ticking.
I know it’s pretty common on the 6.0 to have piston slap too which is very similar to the lifter tick sound.
@@jonathanorona7493 beautiful truck by the way
@@jakobwltrs I didn’t even think about that. I think piston slap would definitely cause a bent valve over a long period of time though right? It’s made this ticking for the two years that I’ve had it and I’ve towed with it a few times with no issues in regard to power loss, which I think would probably happen with piston slap? Could be wrong, either way, I hope neither of us has that lol
@@jakobwltrs thank you, it is very much appreciated!
No point in having an x pipe if it’s going back to a single
Why’s that?
What headers are you running on it?
I’m running a pair of Flowtech ceramic coated shorty headers
Name of the wheels and size tires you’re running.
Method Wheels 315 17x8.5
Toyo Tires - 35x12.50R17
Any drone?
With this set up there was a drone I would get while cruising around 65-70. Also would get a raspy tone at low rpm’s under acceleration.
What size wheels and tires and do you have a lift of so what size
The wheels are 17’s and the tires are 35x12.5 Toyo M/T. The rear is stock and the front at the time of this video was also at stock height.
Did u have to regear im puting a 3in rc lift and wana make sure i wont have any rubbing thanks for any help
@@joshjones4877 3 inch lift is just a little taller than what my front end is currently at now. I put torsion keys in and now in the front I’m about 2.25 inches but I left the rear stock. I’m not rubbing in the front however I also have cut my front bumper in half and now have a tube bumper with skid plate. I think with the 3 inch lift you’ll be fine.
As far as the re-gear, I did not re gear. My truck currently has the stock 4.10 gears. It’s a bit sluggish now and I definitely want to switch over to 4.56 but I’ve towed a 30ft travel trailer and also a 26ft enclosed trailer and my truck did fine with the 35’s. But a regear would definitely help.
Holy shit there's a lot of crap welded in there.
Couldn’t agree more, the idea was to try and get as many different sound clips as possible since there aren’t too many videos of 2500 with different exhaust set ups. But the idea wasn’t very well thought out when I did it 😂
Not much clap, 😮
Notice in power difference?
I didn’t feel a big power difference, but definitely didn’t feel as sluggish or “heavy” on the acceleration from a stop.
Whats the wheel name
These are Method 315 wheels.

Are you doing a full restoration? Like a frame off? I would love to repaint this truck one day and continue to add more goodies. But as you know the price to do everything at once is a lot lol
