Flowmaster 817492 Force II Cat-Back Stainless Steel Exhaust System for 2007-2013 Chevrolet Silverado & GMC Sierra 1500
Engineered to deliver improved exhaust scavenging, enhanced engine efficiency, and a refined performance sound, the Flowmaster 817492 Force II cat-back exhaust system provides a direct bolt-on upgrade for 2007–2013 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks. Constructed from 409S stainless steel, this 3.00-inch single to 2.50-inch dual mandrel-bent assembly flows directly into a heavy-gauge Super 50 Series muffler, producing a deep exterior exhaust note while maintaining a mild interior cab tone. Exhaust engineering specialists note that mandrel-bent stainless tubing eliminates internal crimping and flow restrictions, decreasing backpressure to optimize throttle response during heavy trailer towing.
Designed for versatile installation and extreme winter road durability, the Force II system features multi-position tailpipe exits, allowing drivers to route exit tips straight out the rear under the bumper or behind the rear tires. Exiting behind the rear tires is particularly beneficial when towing campers or boat trailers, preventing exhaust fumes and soot from accumulating on towed cargo. The entire assembly utilizes factory hanger positions and includes 3.00-inch polished dual-wall stainless steel tips. Domestic shipping across North America ensures complete supply chain transparency, rapid regional transit, and zero unexpected duty or customs fees.
