oh and im not worried about the db limits, im planning on getting a qtp silverado screamer which has a cut out type valve in one chamber of the muffler so you flip the switch from stock type muffler to straight pipe.

You'll have to get a y-pipe custom made to mate up to the Pacesetters, as all that is available is an ORY...as for the cut out, go with DMH, the QTP's are unfortunately prone to failure, the bolts loosen up and butterfly shaft breaks.

I'm going to move this to the GM Engine and Exhaust Performance section....

I haven't heard anything about that style of cutout, it sounds pretty cool though....just not familiar with them so I can't comment if they're good or bad. Of course it's expensive like every go fast item for these truck I do know that guys around here have had good luck with their DMH cut outs thought...

be sure to keep us updated on which route you take...I'd like to see that muffler cut out that you're talking about
