- Check out this new Chevy Silverado with the all new 2.7 Turbo 4 cylinder motor. FMS Performance in San Bernardino, CA built a custom exhaust system trying many different mufflers along the way. Take a listen and let us know what you think. fmsperformance.com
If I close my eyes, I would have never imagined a truck
Lol
I’d imagine a Honda Civic or Toyota Camry 🤔😳😂
Lmao
Until it passes your v8 than u sell the v8 for the more powerful 4 lmao
While I don't care for the sound, I really appreciate the effort you put into making this video!
Thank you for the comment. It's going to be tough to make a full size Silverado sound great with a 4 Cylinder. Please subscribe for more updates.
I agree, as an owner of this model with the 2.7. It's amazing how much power this little motor has, you would be tempted to add an aggressive exhaust. It's gonna sound like a car no matter what you do, unless someone gets very creative! Great video!!
This engine would shine in the Colorado
So would the EcoTec 4.3 and the 3.0 Duramax.
PepuroniPeetsa the s10 had a 4.3 and its smaller than a Colorado and they don’t make the Colorado with a 4.3? Disgusting if you ask me
I have the 2.7 and LOVE it. Its faster than my Dads 2018 Sierra with the 5.3L
Well guess whats, its coming, although the colorado may drop the V6 but for sure is dropping the diesel turbo. RIP
Austin Lisowski . The 2.8 diesel will outperform this gasser. I have one and it gets 35+ mpg and out tow a 5.3
I recently bought a 2021 Silverado Custom with the 2.7 turbo. Honestly, I was surprised at how much power the truck has. With that being said... I’m gonna keep mine stock. Thanks for the video
Congrats on your new truck. Thanks for the comment, we're still working hard to design an exhaust system that will sound like the truck looks. Please subscribe for more updates.
Word it sounds like what it is I have the same engine and was wondering if an exhaust upgrade wouldn't only give more power with a tune but sound better. But idk man it sounds like a souped up civic with a turbo with an open exhaust 🤣🤣
Yeah me too! I rather have the stock sound then put money in it to just to sound like a Honda or Camry
I just bought one also and this video is awsome! The motor was designed like a diesel and a couple of those exhausts really made that turbo whistle and had a kackle like a diesel also. Stock that's all you can here is a little turbo whistle.
I’m coming from the zl1 and the 2.7 is very FUN!! That 430 lbs torque sis very nice with the 310 hp I beat the 5.3 V8
I'm gonna keep mine stock. I wouldn't want my pastor and church members to beat on me after I drive up. Seriously, the little engine is a remarkable performer.
Thanks for the comment. Please subscribe for updates. Thank you
It's a weak POS
I agree it is a Weak POS !!!
RAM TRUCKS it’s not, I hated it at first but I’m telling you. That truck picks up, 2 guys in my shop brought it in and let us ride it. The torque on that truck is surprising. Honestly
@@ramtrucks721 The only Dudes Bragging that 4 Banger are the Guys who were foolish eneough to buy one
I've been waiting for someone to do an exhaust video on the 2.7!
Hello Austin, thanks for your comment. Please subscribe for more updates. Thanks.
FMS Performance a CAI video would be good too
@@austinlisowski1510 Thank you. Next time we'll do the CAI.
Yea and it really Sucks !!!
@ Austin Lisowski Yea and it Sucks ! The 2.7 sounds more Like My Fat Wife Farting !
Oh i get it...Keep it stock and don't waste money on an exhaust system. Message received!
lol, That's one way to look at it for sure. We are struggling to find something that will make it sound like what it looks like. Trying many different products and muffler brands and I believe we'll find something at some point. Please subscribe for more updates and we'll let you know. If you hear of something please let us know. Thanks.
I thought the Flowmaster 10 series complemented it best. I also liked all of the Magnaflows. I can see a future for this motor in time.
I would daily the Borla Type S or the similar Magnaflow. I like how you showed the muffler that was being used.
Thank you. Please subscribe to our channel for updates with intakes & other upgrades for this truck.
I wouldn't do it on my 2.7 but props for all the effort for the vid! The louder turbo noise was cool though.
I agree about the turbo whistle but we need more work on getting it to sound more like a Silverado truck. Thanks for your comment. Please subscribe for updates.
Thinking of getting one. How is it holding up a year later?
Facts I got the same 2.7 i love that turbo sound but the engine louder is a big no and imma just keep my shit stock
That turbo whistle 😍👌. Got more respect for the 2.7 now haha.
Thanks for your comment. Please stay tuned for updates by subscribing to our channel
I'm here because I wanted to hear what the 2.7T sounded like opened up (as the CT4-V is a potential purchase). Obviously the layouts of the exhaust pathing are different but does give an idea as to what we are working with here. I really appreciate the effort you all went through here to get solid comparisons.
4 cylinder sound coming from a Silverado is gross. I'd keep the exhaust stock and quiet. I'd go with a tune and that's it.
Thanks for your comment. It is very, very hard to get used to the 4 cylinder in a full size truck. Please subscribe for more updates. Thanks.
@yfz450rx This was a customers truck but from what my customers are telling me is that they feel like they are much faster than the V8 5.3
Yep, that’s a tough one to get used too.... Just sounds like it should be a Honda Civic driving by. I like the turbo noise though!
No tunes available for 2.7 yet nobody has cracked the computer yet. I’m gonna get the super 10 tomorrow and see what happens
FMS Performance I own a 5.3 now and I’ve driven the 2.7l. The turbo is much faster and more fun! 😎
2000-2010: Chevy owners complaining about the sound of honda 4 cylinders.
2020: This
All facts😂🤣
Honda’s sound the way they do due to a efficient manifold design that flows really well at high rpm...
For the people that took time to comment on just how terrible a four-cylinder is in a full-size truck. Go to your local dragstrip this summer. And I promise you you will see a four-cylinder turbos woopin on v8s. Yes there’s something special about an American V8 rumble. But there’s also something cool about forced induction too. Remember 20 years ago only the race cars had turbos. They sound cool and they give you a mighty punch of torque in the mid range
It sounds like a very powerful vacuum cleaner.
Thanks for the comment, you're not the only one that's called it a Dyson. It's a work in motion trying to get a great sound out of a 4 cylinder Chevy truck. Please subscribe for more updates. Thanks!
@@FMSPerformance I'm not usually a smartass. I do own an ecoboost mustang and like it a bunch.
What are your thoughts about the longterm durability of this motor?
@@SB-mw1bg That's a tough call. I believe in GM products but this does seem like a stretch.
@@SB-mw1bg No worries, I love the comments.
I owned v6 and v8 in the past. All my trucks have had an aftermarket exhaust. I bought the 2.7L Turbo because I live in California and I commute. The main reason was for the gas savings. The average gas price is roughly $3.50 per gallon. I get about 20-21mpg hwy with a 24-gallon tank. You do the math. It's been a bit hard to get used to the sound. I installed a black exhaust tip, that's it. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for commenting. I would be interested if any upgrades for your truck will add MPG such as intake, tuner, exhaust. If you decide to make any upgrades please keep us posted. Thank you. Please subscribe for updates.
Bruh. You made a Silverado sounds like a 97 civic with an eBay turbo.
LOL, thanks for commenting. It looks like the future. Please subscribe for more updates.
It sounds the way it does due to a very efficient manifold design to go along with the dual volute turbo. I’m willing to bet with bolt ons and a tune (once the ecu is cracked) we’ll see 400+ hp and 400+ torque...
Took words out of my mouth.. awful and sad.
I can't unsee this haha thanks for ruining it for me 😂
@sleeper.simulant7327 the jb4 tuner self maps add 80 hp from reviews I've been reading. Intake exhaust and the dp about another 50 so it's definitely achievable. The better questions since the internals are forged im ready to see the bigger turbo setups
Got to love turbo motors. Full torque at 1500 RPM is crazy.
Thanks for the comment. Please subscribe for more updates.
That Borla Atak created the best sound, a little bit more growly and a nice turbo spool
Thanks for the comment. Please subscribe for more updates. Thank you
Sounds like a bicycle with the can in the back tire. Lol
This exhaust review required several installs and I thoroughly appreciate your efforts. Borla S sounds like my kinda exhaust.
Thank you. Please subscribe for more updates.
Me too, but according to Borla's website they only make the S Type muffler in a 2.5" diameter in/out. Not sure about the silverado but my 2023 Canyon with a 2.7 has a 3" pipe (Can't imagine the Silverado is smaller). I can't find a 3" S Type anywhere
@@DmitriCat1 We used the Borla #40842S (link below) this muffler is 2 1/2 inch inside pipe diameter so it fits real nice on a three inch pipe. If you read the info on Borla's page it evens tells you to use a three inch clamp
www.borla.com/products/universal-muffler-40842s
What are the part numbers for the Borla Atak and S-type (mufflers only, not entire cat back) to fit my 2023 silverado 2.7 ?
BTW - nice exhaust comparison.
That Borla Atak sounds the best to me. I wonder how loud it is overall though. the magnaflow was a little quiet from what i expected to hear. Normally magnaflows on NA engines sound great and Borlas on Turbo engines are amazing :).
Thanks for your comment Kevin. Please subscribe to our channel for more updates and upgrades added.
I have the 3.0L in line 6 Diesel engine in my 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST. I’m really hoping they end up making the borla atak system for this engine and I’m really hoping it will sound meaner than the 2.7, 4 cylinder gas engine exhaust does.
I have aborla ATAK on my 3.5 it’s super loud
I really wanna know what a black widow exhaust would sound like on one of these
I have the 2020 version, been a little over 2 years now, I’m telling you, as soon as you can get over the Honda Civic sound lol, the truck runs great
A week ago we picked up a 2023 LT. I wondered how it would sound with a Magnaflow and Flowmaster. Thanks for the deep-dive on this! Very informative.
I think ill roll with the stock setup for now.
If I close my eyes I see a Honda
Lmao exactly. Not a big pickup. Lol
I close my eyes and hear a honda that won't last like a honda
Sounds so funny when it keeps hitting the SAME Rpm. And some moments I think it is gonna rev higher, but NO, it it the SAME thing!! That is so hilarious!!!!
thanks for the help picking one. think ill go with the first one. i live in the IE how much the the install on the borla Atak?
People here complain how bad the 4 cyl sounds..but to me this actually sounds pretty damn good for a little four cylinder.. heck, I wish my 4 banger sounded like this.
Yeah. I really like the sounds of the Borla Atak muffler.
I put the s-type on 18 6.2 Silverado from watching these vids. Best decision I ever made.
i have a 2020 2.7T can't wait to see more video's on this truck.

ItsPistolsOnly I am sorry you have that POS Engine !! Pal you could have had a V8 !
thunder bolt ehh if you want to pay the few thousands more then fine by me but for what I do it’s perfect 👌🏻
@@SilentEffects Pal I repeat you could have had a V8 ! You will be sorry in a year or two when that little engine Come apart and throws shrapnel everywhere !
Brandon Berkebile yeah I’m not worried about it lol trucks been perfect so far, it’s been about a year now, Shame if it somehow sends shrapnel everywhere, just means warranty soo
I dont know man. A Silverado sounding like a civic si is kind of a parallel universe thing.😂😂😂
I know it's way different than what we're used to, but it looks like the future. Please subscribe for more updates. Thank you
Cool video. Love how you showed the actual muffler. The outlaw made it sound like a diesel. Might be picking up a 2.7. If I do exhaust, it’ll be between the borla s type, fm 40 or the mf 12619. Sub’d
Thanks for your comment. Please subscribe for more updates.
Having a hard time wrapping my brain around a half ton truck sounding like a spitfire.😮
The magnaflow and the flowmaster super 10. But go lil deeper with air intake
Thanks for the comment, we'll work on that. Please subscribe for more updates.
Awesome video. I wish there was one for the 2023 colorado/canyon
This video saved me a bunch of time. I appreciate it. Thanks
Thank you. Please subscribe for more updates.
Forgive me for my lack of knowledge but I have this exact truck and I’m wanting to put that Borla atak on. Do I just need that muffler and can it go onto the existing stock exhaust?
How’s the truck holding up almost a year later? Thinking of getting one but indecisive.
The engine is good but the interior is of poor quality plastics
Don't do it. I have exact truck, did the dual exhaust. The 4 cylinder will sound like a honda civic
@@londeee141 sorry late reply by a few years but trucks been great engine wise a bunch of small mechanical issues easy fix stuff but engine itself is sound love the truck but will definitely go with the V8 next time still rocking the stock exhaust
Just doesn’t sound right to have a 4-cylinder exhaust note coming from a big pickup. Wish they could at least have made it sound good like a BMW 330i (2.0T) or MINI JCW exhaust.
Thanks for the comment. We were trying for a truck sound but pretty tough to get that from a 4 cly. Please subscribe for more updates. Thanks.
It has to do with manifold design coupled with the dual volute turbine. The exhaust manifold is equal to promote pulses hitting the turbine equally.
@@FMSPerformance unequal length exhaust like Ford does to their ecoboost trucks? Surely that would help and unequal length header would be ideal, but not as realistic
Borla arak coming up might might a video on it . You’ve inspired me . There’s not any 2.7 stuff going on let’s make some .
Sounds good, please subscribe for more updates. Thanks.
Borla Attack sounds awesome that turbo spool sweet music to my ears
I keep my 2018 3.5 ecoboost quiet. Removed the resonator and put on turbo adapters. It has a nice wistle but not loud and well....
Great video sir !! You mad it easier for us to choose before spending money and not liking it later
Love the turbo whistle, man it’s just hard to get a small displacement engine to sound as good as a V8, my 2.7 my 2.7 Ecoboost sounds vary similar so I put the original exhaust, love to see areal review on your truck, I’d watch.
Thanks for the comment. What a challenge this truck has been. Please subscribe for more updates.
lmfao yo im dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣,, I like the turbo sound though
Thanks for the comment. This new 4 cylinder turbo is challenging. Please subscribe for more laughs to come 😁
The little engine that could.
Thanks for the comment. It sure is! Please subscribe for more updates.
Blow Up
I appreciate the time and effort this engine i am really impressed but ima keep it stock exhaust would like to try to hear more of the turbo whistle thats it
I get it. We are going to try some new stuff in the future to try to get it to sound like it looks. Thank you
I Just bought a 2019 Silverado LT 2.7L turbo yesterday used
I was really skeptical about the 4 cylinder in a truck
How do you like it???
And should i keep it stocked muffler or try one of theses
I dont want to go around sounding like a honda lol
Thanks for contacting. This truck belongs to one of our customers and we tried many different mufflers hoping to make it sound like what it looks like. As you can hear we failed. This 4 cylinder truck is amazing but very difficult to get a truck sound. Please subscribe for more updates and if you have any luck please let us know. Thanks
Can you guys do a full straight pipe from the turbo back. That would be an interesting sound
We will be doing updates so please subscribe and you will be notified when we have. Thank you.
i love this video, i know the effort it take to make one and i just bought a 22 silverado but thinking about getting a 3inch straight pipe. Thank you am subcribed. Waiting to see someone dyno this truck with some mods! 👍
A couple of those legit made it sound like a Jetsons car...
lol, great comment. This has been a real challenge to make it sound like it looks. Please subscribe for more updates. Thank you
What size inlet and outlet do these trucks have?
What is that little thing attached to the pipe right before the muffler? Looks like it’s electronic. Should a shop keep that or cut it out if replacing the muffler?
Go with a dual exhaust, Black Widow muffler. It is the deepest sounding muffler. Sounds like a V6.
Thanks for the heads up. we'll try that next. Can you send the part number?
If you close your eyes you can almost hear the VTECH kicking in YO!
Thanks for the comment. Please subscribe for more updates.
Awesome comparison. I've always wondered how various options would sound so I could get just the right tone, rather than guessing and investing in something I didn't like.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. We have another one we're going to try next time. The Magnaflow Xmod muffler, I think it's going to be a good one. Please subscribe for updates. Thanks.
Man, the 2.7T sounds like a 4-53T Detroit Diesel. Nice video.
Thanks for your comment. Please subscribe for more updates.
Ol' Smerv thats right
Honda with a fart can more like
Worst sounding Detroit diesel ever
Thank you I just bought a brand new 2021 with a Turbo 2.7 and this helped me out a lot! Did you dyno them also?
Thank you. Please subscribe for more updates.
I just got one today. How you like it so far?
if it were mine i would choose between the outlaw or super 10
Thanks for your comment. Please subscribe to our channel for more updates using intakes & more. Thanks!
Yeah I like that super 10
The flowmaster sounds good
Thanks for your comment. Please subscribe for more updates.
I have the 3.0L in line 6 Diesel engine in my 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST. I’m really hoping they end up making the borla atak system for this engine and I’m really hoping it will sound meaner than the 2.7, 4 cylinder gas engine exhaust does.
Thank you for contacting. No complete kit available yet but you can purchase the Borla Atak muffler and have a muffler shop install it. Follow the link below and show it to your muffler shop before you order to make sure it will work. Thank you

Nothing you can do for it except make it quieter so nobody can hear it because they going to laugh at you
lol, thanks for commenting. We are working on another improvement so please subscribe for more updates.
Thanks for this!
You are very welcome. Thanks for letting us know. We love this stuff!
Would the Atak 400844 crate muffler be similar
What size are the stock exhaust pipes
Great video comparison! Thanks!
I have a 2021 Silverado 2.7
This would work great!!! 2 7/8 inch stock piping
Following and interested in custom exhaust and more power gains.
Thank you. Please subscribe for updates on intakes & tuners for this truck.
Well informed video with those with the 2.7. Wish someone would do the same viedo with the 4.3
Thank you. Sounds like a good idea, maybe we will. Please subscribe for more updates.
Keep showing people the borla atak. Love the turbo spool

Much respect for you and the video,
Im just turned off with a full size truck sounding like a honda civic.
Damn good video thanks 😊
We agree! and are working on something that will make it sound like it looks. Please subscribe for more updates. Thank you
I think the Super 10 and the Outlaw sound the best. Just my opinion though. I'd like to see if the new Colorado sounds any different. It shouldn't.
Absolutely
Is it possible to swap out the stock muffler with any of these and keep the rest of the system stock
Yes, you will need to build some adapter pipes for fitment. Please subscribe for more updates. Thank you
Can you add a blow off valve to this turbo?
Did u ever find out ?
Did you do a muffler delete?
What muffler was left on this truck? The stock one was cut out...
The Super 10 Flowmaster. fmsperformance.com/shop/performance-mufflers/flowmaster-super-10/
Can you send me a link to the borla atak exhaust please
Which magnaflow muffler is which. I'm assuming one is round and the other oval?
They all sound good to me, was thinking of Installing one of them on my 2020 Silverado 2.7 Turbo and was told today by GM Service Department that would most likely Void my Warranty, Have you heard anything on that?
Great question. No it will not void the warranty. There is actually a law that protects us from this and most dealers are aware of it. Follow the link below for more information about the Magnuson Moss act. Thank you and please subscribe for more updates.

Awesome video! Thank you!
I just purchased the 2021 LT. I'd like to see info on each of these, then make a decision. Most of them sound clean, but what HP advantages or otherwise exist? Great video nonetheless 👏👍🏼
Thank you. We do not have any dyno results for the exhaust upgrades for this truck at this time.
If you can, try to do the 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500HD Dually 6.6l Duramax DIesel V8, which is my favorite truck, soon.(Also, I want to see higher RPMS. Just saying.)
The diesels don't really change in sound when you change the exhaust due to the DPF filter and catalytic converters. Even straight pipe doesn't change anything. On most of the newer vehicles there is a RPM governor that holds the RPM lower, SUCKS!
@@FMSPerformance Damn. Just get rid of the governor IF possible, that is. See you soon, mate!!
I just purchased a 2020 2.7T Silverado and am anxious to remove the adaptive valve before the muffler. What system did you keep on this truck, have you noticed any improvement in fuel mileage? FYI My previous daily was an ‘18 ZR2 Colorado with the 2.8 Duramax. I love my new Silverado!
We ended with the large Magnaflow at the end of the video. Didn't notice any changes in fuel economy. Please subscribe for more updates.
Is there a part number for the borla atak muffler
Amazing video, thanks for taking the time and putting in the effort creating this. I’ve subscribed as well because it seems so damn hard to find customizations for my 2020 2.7 Sierra. Keep up the good work! Straight pipe video would be awesome, I’m excited and looking forward to upcoming videos!
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement. We'll keep you updated on new projects.

Are these with or without the resonator?

Which model magnaflow was it for the first magnaflow sound clip since there was 2
First Magnaflow was #12619 follow the link below for more info

Thank you, please subscribe for more updates.
did you guys ever find something to match its appearance? just bought a 2021 silverado and really wanna make it sound more aggressive
If you bought a 2.7 there is no sounding aggressive
Not yet. If your local to the IE in SoCal bring it in for a day, we love the challenge.
Do you guys see any droning issues with the magnaflows? I liked the sound of the first one, I think it's part #12619
Thanks for contacting. There is a little drone with the Magnaflow (less than the others) but very much tolerable. Please subscribe for more updates.
@@FMSPerformance Thanks! Will do
What series is the magnagflow?
That's a nice sounding civic you got there what trim is it
lol, yes we have tried almost everything to make it sound like it looks and we're failing. Please subscribe for more updates.
Sounds like a leaf blower this engine would be better suited in the blazer, traverse rst and the 3rd gen Colorado rst coming
Thanks for the comment. It definitely takes some getting used to. I believe it's the sound of the future. Please subscribe for more updates.
These are the new grandpa truck.
Thanks for commenting. The old guys actually hate this truck, it's more for the guy that's transitioning from there Honda racer to a truck. We're still trying new exhaust systems to try to get it to sound like it looks but failing badly. Please subscribe for more updates.
I like how the magnaflows sound but I love the turbo chirp on some of the other ones like the outlaw. Would a downpipe or a resonator delete help with that?
Thanks for the comment. We removed the resonator before we did the video but haven't thought about the down pipe yet. Maybe that will be the next move. Please subscribe for more updates.
@@FMSPerformance this engine makes some cool noises, but I feel like a loud exhaust doesn’t help it too much. I like all the whistling it does though. I was thinking maybe getting all that turbo sound enhanced while keeping the exhaust muted but sporty might be the best way to go on this truck.
@@CurtisL8.3066 I really can't wait to try the new universal Magnaflow xMod muffler. I'm hoping this is the answer to a great sound for this truck and that motor. fmsperformance.com/shop/performance-exhaust-systems/xmod-universal-mufflers/
