Well, if you want to play, you gotta pay!

Th previous gen perf exhaust was $1299 and cross bars $199. 2021 Crossbars $499 and Perf Exhaust $2149. Seems like some serious price gouging on 2021 accessories.

So, any ideas of a dealer or source that can get these without paying MSRP? I'd love to try them out.

In regards to the exhaust I don’t think you’re comparing apples to apples really...

From the link you posted it looks like there are (2) exhaust options. The $2149 option is for a dual rear exiting system, while the single side exiting option is $1649. The $1649 side exiting option would be more comparable to the GM performance exhaust option offered for the K2’s. And the obvious better choice based on the performance increase numbers.

In better news in regards to the GM/Brembo factory brake upgrade it looks like they will be offering a matching rear brake upgrade as well. It says: “Similarly tricked out rear units also are available and both squeeze larger Duralife rotors.” Fronts = $2,895
Rears = $575

Even if the rears are a 4 piston caliper with larger diameter rotors that’s a decent brake upgrade for <$3,500.

I had a 6.2 K2, but yes it only had a single exit

Anyone have part numbers/know when we can expect to see these available?

Updated: found part # for CAI (84854456) .... still looking for exhaust.

 

[TrucksterZ71]

All the part numbers and MSRPs ... talked to my dealer and nothing expected available for about 30 days

Weird that the Escalade has a different part number for the kit. Also Cadillac is offering a 25% off coupon code.

However i have yet to find the Air Intake Upgrade Kit for the Escalade. I would thank they would be the same but would hate to assume only to find out the reflash/tune code that comes with it isn't cross platform.

I just inquired with my dealer about p/n 84888291 Tahoe 6.2L Dual Exit Exhaust Upgrade System. the Cadillac part in the images shows a flapper connected to the flex pipe for the 6.2. The chevy link does not show a flapper or the small resonators.

pricey for the gains...

Dealer ordered the exhaust. Will post back once I get it installed.

So now that you have yours installed and have seen it, do you think the Cadi kit is basically the same minus the tips?

Yes. The Escalade has the tips built into the bumper. My guess that is the only difference. It does sound good and a few extra ponies.

Anybody able to get the CAI yet/know when it will be available? Other than confirming it will exist, haven't been able to get clear availability from dealer.

I tried last week. The dealer said they see the part number, but it wasn’t shipping until Feb/March.

Dealer that I bought the Perf exhaust from told me that it would not be an issue to order it (as of today). However, it is not on the online accessory store yet so not eligible for those discounts. That is why I did not pull the trigger yet. I wanted the 20 percent off. Going to ask dealer for discount anyway.

Did you try giving the dealers the part numbers that is what I did for the exhaust?

84854456 5.3L Cold Air Intake Upgrade System

84854457 6.2L Cold Air Intake Upgrade System

 

[Bigmanny]

Anybody get the intake yet? Just curious as to what sounds like in the cab. I had a k&n once on a hemi and the intake was very loud almost a roaring sound when air was being sucked in.

I was wrong. I just confirmed it is still not shipping. My dealer said that GM is selling it factory installed only at the moment.

I found some listed on ebay. However, I went with the Volant CAI. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2021-Silve...-Intake-Kit-84854457-Genuine-GM-/114479243827
