    Good idea on the drain. I’m in Regina and have a catch can on my truck. I do find myself having to empty it out weekly in the winter.
    I think it is worth having the catch can on your truck.

      hey you're not too far away from where i am.
      I'm in Opheim and was concerned about keep a catch can on my silverado.
      It regularly reaches -50 F here where i am.

    Been watching you for almost a year now ever since I got my sierra. You inspired me to customize mine. I did take some of your ideas like the cold air induction intake, the boilers exhaust and bullet antenna. I also did a 6 inch lift with 22x12 wheels and it came out great. Keep up the great work and I can’t wait to see what you have planned next.

    Is there a way to connect the mirror lights to the low beams? I’ve already seen the high beams version but I don’t use high beams often

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  2 роки тому +1

      Probably. They would just need to be triggered by the low beam circuit. Maybe pose the question to the folks at BoostAutoParts

    What happened to the illuminated gmc emblem? FYI, this is the best your truck has looked since I’ve seen your channel.
    Just got my 2022 1500 4x4 Sierra SLT on 11/04, and it’s everything I could’ve ever wanted.

    Do you have to remove the catch can when you take it in for service?

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  2 роки тому +2

      Don’t have to but of you are worried about a warranty claim it is easy to remove. To deny warranty would require the catch can to be proven as what caused the warranty-covered part or system to fail.

    Hi Dan silly question to ask you did you put aluminum wall in your catch? Can I hear some people say you should some people say you shouldn't? I got one for my 2016 Silverado but I don't know I wanted to talk to you. You're the more of the top of your game on everything I need some expert advice.

    When Installing the Cold Air Intake, did you have to do any Manufacturer Flash Update to the Engine to avoid any Engine Codes? I have a 2019 Chevy 5.3l. Silverado, I was looking at the Chevrolet Cold Air Intake, System, it included a Update for the Engine. Funny thing is Chevrolet does NOT offer the Cold Air Intake anymore from the Accessory Online Catalog.

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  2 роки тому +1

      Depends on the intake, but with the ones I have installed; As long as you disconnect the battery for a couple hours during the install and turn off the air filter monitor in system menu, you won’t throw a code. The MAF will read the new airflow parameters and adjust fuel mixture.

    • @markmanning5683
      @markmanning5683 2 роки тому +1

      @@Donslife Sounds like the plan. When you disconnect the battery, do you do both sides of the battery or just the ground?

    My 2022 At4 6.2 has the right bank exhaust crossover pipe that is mashed over half flat. I hate it. Have you looked at yours? I am going to have it replaced with a proper round crossover pipe.

    Do you like the S&B intake you have installed over the CIA model? Which one do you prefer? I’m in the market on purchasing one

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  2 роки тому +3

      If you want the most noise and an aggressive looking intake, S&B is my preference for this truck and its personality. I moved the CAI intake to our 2022 Escalade and it is a good addition there too, but less aggressive and quieter.
