LQ9 (6.0l **) in a Tahoe

[bkboatnsleds]

I am currently in the process of dropping an Lq9 into my 2003 Tahoe.

Have ordered Gibson headers for it, hope to get the motor swapped this month!

Suggestions on nice sounding exhaust? (w/o the drone or loud at crusting speeds)

i would go with magnaflow exhaust system, very quite loud on WOOT, make sure you take lots of pics of the build up look forward to the process

CORSA!! I love mine and it absolutely has those features about it you are wanting!

Corsa... I like magnaflow but once I heard the corsa... I had to have it!! now I do! along with headers etc... even with my headers the yuk is still faily quiet at cruising speeds... do you have a budget?

 

[bkboatnsleds]

Well whats the cost of the corsa??? I know its the 'best' but its also expensive.. whats the next best?? lol

A guy at my work has an Escalade with a Corsa cat-back and it sounds nice inside and out. Very low drone at cruising speeds.

I found mine on Ebay for $600 total with free shipping, it was brand new and completely bolt on!! I think summit wanted 900+ for the same setup, I think the same guy on their wanted 700 for a brand new "touring" corsa setup, I think it is still there (summit wanted 1100 for that same setup)!

Not really - Its the 6.0L ** version - I am going through it all w/ new gaskets, but otherwise it will be stock short of:

Headers
Exhaust
Cold air intake
Performance Tune

What is the difference between sport and touring?

Sound.

Sound.

I guess, is one louder? different at different RPM;s?

The Touring setup sounds a little louder than stock while the sport is quite a bit louder (sounds awesome without being obnoxious) than stock! Check out Youtube, there is a guy on there with an '04 denali (if I remember right) with sound clips of both exhausts on his truck!
