This is kit 15573, it has the big 22" muffler plus a 16" resonator. With headers, I think i'd be very happy with this.

Well I had that 22" muffler on stock manifolds on my 5.3 and it was quieter than the stock muffler was, but had a nice tone to it. I'm totally game for replacing my stock muffler with this again - but then adding headers. I was to impatient with the 5.3 and needed volume then, so I got rid of it. Hindsight, I should have kept it. If I find a used 22" muffler i'll probably put it on now. Then put headers on.
The kit is nice. but I want to hear the 6.2 with JUST the magnaflow 22".

I LOVED my H/C 5.3L with LT's and 3in ORY with the 22in magnaflow. It was the offset one so it was a bit quieter than the straight through. It was quiet and had no drone at cruise/driving and when i would pull into get gas you could still the the cam because i got asked a number of times lol Had a great sound once you hit the skinny pedal also... If i ever put LT's on this truck i'll get another 22in magnaflow for sure!!!

I think I am leaning to the dynatech split flow with no cutout. Just 1 3/4" aem headers, 3" ory, 3.5" straight back to a 14" dynatech and 3.5" turn out before the rear tire , under the bed. I will sell my 24" case magnaflow 5x8 oval muffler and 3" race ready performance cutout setup when I do.

the shorter and smaller around the case is the louder it will be. hell my muffler is 30" long but only 7" diameter and 4" in out and its loud as **** at wot. but cruising its quiet inside the tahoe. but it idles nice and deep.
