PLEASE NOTE!
What does a downpipe do?
The downpipe on your turbocharged vehicle is directing the exhaust gases out of the turbine housing into the exhaust system. An aftermarket downpipe will typically be larger in diameter and either uses a high-flowing catalytic converter or remove the catalytic converter altogether.
By removing the factory downpipe and replacing it with a high flowing unit you are allowing the turbo to more efficiently move gases away from the turbine which creates more power. Since the factory restrictions are now gone you can increase the boost on the vehicle as the factory downpipe is a choking point for performance.

Who This Is For
2011-2016 Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra 2500/3500HD owners with the 6.6L LML Duramax turbo-diesel who tow or drive hard and want to lower EGTs, sharpen turbo response, and prepare for a delete tune.
Check Before Choosing
- Cab & Chassis exclusion: Will NOT fit Cab & Chassis trucks — only fits pickup models (2500/3500HD).
- Tune required for delete: Yes — a diesel tune (EFI Live / HP Tuners) is required to clear the CEL/DPF codes and safely manage the increased flow on the LML.
- Street legality: No — not CARB or EPA certified. Off-road / competition use only.
- EGT effect: Lowers exhaust gas temperatures under sustained load — a key benefit for towing and hard driving.
