Finally found the ss i was looking for! 06 black on black SUPER CLEAN. i didnt realize how hard it was to find one until i was serious about looking for one. i live in Jersey and found it in virginia went and picked it up the day after i found it, best drive home ever. truck is bone stock except for a K&N intake system. my question for you guys and where do i find a cat back exhaust system that exits before the rear tire? do i have to customize it, or can u buy a kit? thanks

Welcome, nice lookin ride. be ready to break open the piggy bank, this trucks will drain the $$$ out of you. One thing I would suggest would be to get an alarm if you can, it seems like every few weeks there is a thread started where somebody's SS was stolen. unless you are like me and you cant leave your truck out of sight. Its always in the garage or I can see it at work from my office. Good luck with your truck theres is tins of info around here for these trucks, I wish i could help you with the exhaust but Im not sure on it.

haha dude im used to spending the cash on my rides.. before this i had a VERY FAST duramax. always been a chevy guy but the diesel world got boring, always wanted an ss in the back of my mind. i will do little by little on this truck and im not gonna go that crazy. but i definetly need an exhaust asap, you cant be driving a quiet ss

Well if you want a loud one throw a turbo on her and run a open down pipe. I have a full exhaust and a electric cutout. I like the sound of the turbo so much I never close it.

 

You said you had a duramax? what all was done to it? with a bit of work those things run hard. my buddy drove one of the fastest D-maxs out.

Thanks dudes! Too much to list on my duramax, lets just say it would of blown my ss out of the water lol (stock ss that is) and thanks for all the advice I think I might just get a magnaflow muffler and customize my exhaust from there on. What do u guys suggest for not so pricey bolt on horsepower on these trucks, I had my fun with my duramax so as of right now I don't wanna go crazy with any twin turbo kits or superchargers

The easiest way to make power is to get some headers, muffler, cold air intake, and a tune.... That will wake it up.

 

I would do some regular maintenance as well just as a precautionary. Plugs and wires and run some sea foam thru the gas tank and the brake booster to clean up and carbon deposits and fuel system.
