For real? Do you have a catless downpipe or still got that cat? My car got a little louder going from stock downpipe to catless downpipe but I already had short air intake
Hey Carter Thanks for your Cruze video they’ve been very informative. Any chance you might have a line on downpipe, blockplate and software available??? My fault for waiting to long last year, I’ve got a 2015. Thanks again
I tried to find a seller a few months back for a second Cruze I own now with no luck. Everyone I called would not help. I think someone in the comments of my DPF delete video found someone. You might want to research that.

Could be several reasons, maybe he just enjoys doing stuff himself, also easier to remove said parts if the end result isn't what you expected. And last be not least, if a muffler shop gets caught removing parts from a diesel's exhaust system there's a good chance they'd get shut down and fined a bunch of money if the wrong (or right) people knew about it. They're most likely not gonna risk their business to make $100 on an muffler delete lol.
@@dedalliance1 facts. And to save 10$. People like me try to save 10$ on our car project so we can use it on our drone hobby next week but hopefully find a way to save 20$ on that to spend on our audio hobby the week after that haha 🤣 that list goes on for days tho
So are you able to hear the turbo bark? I just purchased one with a clogged dpf and bad turbo. Before I addressed the exhaust you could rev it up at idle and let off and the turbo sounded wicked like a duramax when you let off. That was when nothing was hooked to the turbo outlet at all. Was curious if I’d get that sound back if I eliminated the muffler too
...that cold start was wicked. Diesels are smokey and stink...what is the point? The warmed-up idle is good, though...and I'll bet it sounds fine under pedal-to-the-metal acceleration...to each his/her/their own...
Love the videos on the cruze! About to do my delete on my 14 when the parts arrive. The pipe from the engine side is 3inches in diameter? And the pipe on the other side of the flange is 2.5 inches in diameter?
Carter, you still driving that car and how's it running? How many miles now? How's the fuel mileage ( mpg?). As far as the sound, that's definitely louder.
@@carteranderson32 did you do a vid on the timing belt replacement too?? Many guys who do their own have an issue keeping the crank and cam stable while putting on the new belt since its an interference engine and the cam moves when you take off the old belt since there's valve spring pressure.
@@carteranderson32 I saw those from Brad, but he doesn't explain how he put the new one on without moving the cam which is vital?? Getting the old one off is easy, putting the new tighter one on is much harder without moving the crank nor teh cam. Did you use the tool they make to keep them in place??
Maybe I am not following you. I released the pressure by loosening the tensioner first. Made sure the 3 timing marks were in a location where the belt was touching them. Then took off old belt and put new belt on making sure all 3 timing marks on new belt lined up with marks on engine. Then tightened tensioner back up and all was good on both cars I did this on.
Im pretty sure it doesn't effects yo MPG. mufflers are mainly used in order to muffle the engine sound unless yo muffles weights more then 30kgs removing it won't effect yo cars performance
@@RandoManFPVnope never even drove a car why?...........at this point you're getting all excited about the smart ass shit you're going to say never understanding sarcasm. As for me laughing about the fact that he never caved in the inner portion of the pipe and removed he just left it in... yeah I stand by it Capt keyboard
@@NoGoodVeryBadAmerican "he never caved the portion of the pipe he left in and removed it" I've really got no idea what this means. If he made a cringeworthy mistake, please share so I don't make the same mistake. As far as I can tell, cat delete for straight pipe is what you are cringing about. Context is nice you knoe
@@RandoManFPV for one its a resonator delete not a cat delete. When he cut the forward portion of the pipe do you see the slip over portion see how there's two layers of pipe ? He should have removed the inner portion since this was in the name of performance
exactly what i was looking for. Thanks!!
This is NOT your muffler and It doesn’t add any noise at all I just did it and it still sounds the same
you're an idiot sir

Nice job - but why didn't you get a muffler shop to WELD the parts together? Why use crappy clamps?

@@Domster19888 go to the facebook group “diesel cruze talk” and find “the dude”
@@Domster19888 I’m about to delete mine aswell what did you do for clamps? a 2.5”-2” doesn’t exist from what I can find
@@Domster19888 canadian tire bro
I want a diesel Cruze now
I just did the delete and do you think it’s okay to leave on the muffler after I deleted the car I just I don’t want it to be to loud
Is the car on a diet or still heavy up front? Mines stock trying to figure a way out to get rid of my clogged muffler. Stock ecu also
Isn't the muffler in the back of the car. Ik mine is. Mine is a 16 with 15 body style
Yes lol
Do you have a link for the 2.5” to 2.0” exhaust clamp? Can’t find one
I bought mine from Amazon
we’re you able to find that clamp? i’ve been looking for hours and have had zero luck.
Does this have a dpf delete?
Did u delete the cat converter after the before the muffler. Resonator pipe with the cat converter is over 300 dollars any way to delete this pipe
ruclips.net/video/x9W1kkGFWDw/видео.html
@5:33 why didn't u pull the rest of the pipe out #performance
It's called a band clamp. Not cuff.
Do you have a list of parts and where you purchased you can provide. Would save a crap load of time instead of me doing a ton of research.
same with me
so no pops and bangs?
Carter, you still driving that car and how's it running? How many miles now? How's the fuel mileage ( mpg?). As far as the sound, that's definitely louder.
I still drive the car daily. No issues. About 138k miles now. I always get 40 to 50 mpg.

I have done two timing belt replacements with no issues. There is a good video already on RUclips for it.

If you do a muffler delete will you get better mpg? If so how much? I could only do a muffler delete can’t do any dpf deletes

I have full stainless steel downpipe from turbo on my 2.0 sound like sport petrol car
where did you find your down pipe
@@jacoballan1488 custom made
@@jacoballan1488 I can help if you still need a downpipe.
Almost cut your arm off buddy with your grinder,are you simple?
Sounds like a mean misfire lol
Did this throw any codes?
Since I loaded the old OZ Tune when I did the DPF delete, I did not get any codes. Not sure what would happen on a stock tune.
That doesn't sound good lol
Cringe
