2001 - 2015 | GM | 6.6L Duramax |
The BD 1043803 is a great choice. It's a direct replacement for the 2001 - 2004 Duramax passenger side up - pipe and an 'off - road' upgrade for 2004.5 - 2015 Duramax (with EGR Delete). Made from solid 304 Stainless Steel, it has precision - cut flanges to stop blowouts.
Part Number: 1043803
Features
- 304 stainless steel precision cast mounting flanges prevent exhaust tubing blowouts and ensure a perfect fit.
- 304L 2 - inch stainless tubing keeps heat energy and won't corrode like aluminized or 409 stainless steel.
- Larger 1.8' ID internally shielded 304 stainless bellows replace restrictive 1.3' ID OEM bellows, maximizing exhaust energy for the turbocharger.
- Smooth mandrel bends improve exhaust gas flow without compromising tubing ID.
- Get quicker turbo response and lower EGT's.
- You need an aftermarket downpipe as it doesn't fit with the OE Downpipe.
Note
- This isn't a direct replacement for 2004.5+ Duramax without an EGR Delete. It only fits when you have an EGR Delete installed.
- An aftermarket downpipe is required, and some modifications are needed.
This up - pipe is easy to use. First, make sure your vehicle is from 2001 - 2015 GM with a 6.6L Duramax engine. If it's a 2004.5+ Duramax, you must have an EGR Delete installed. Also, you'll need an aftermarket downpipe, and some modifications to the vehicle might be necessary. When installing, check that the precision - cast mounting flanges fit well to prevent exhaust tubing blowouts. Maintenance is simple. Since it's made of 304 and 304L stainless steel, it won't corrode easily. Just keep an eye on the bellows and flanges over time. If you notice any issues, like a drop in turbo response or increased EGT's, it might be time to inspect the up - pipe more closely.
