GM Duramax L5P - Down-pipe Back Race Exhaust System (2017-2023)
Type: Exhaust Systems | Fits: GM Duramax
Unleash maximum airflow and aggressive performance with the Black Bandit Downpipe-Back Race Exhaust System. Built for 2017β2023 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500HD/3500HD trucks equipped with the 6.6L Duramax L5P engine, this stainless steel exhaust replaces restrictive factory emissions components to deliver stronger exhaust flow, lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), and sharper throttle response.
The factory exhaust system can restrict airflow and limit performance, especially on tuned or heavily worked trucks. The Black Bandit Downpipe-Back Race Exhaust eliminates these restrictions by replacing the catalytic converter and DPF system with a larger-diameter stainless exhaust. The result is improved airflow, cooler engine operation under load, and a more aggressive exhaust note that matches the power of the L5P Duramax.
