A good sound recording of the SLP tip w/o the resonator would be nice. I like the looks but wouldn't want it if it drones at 70 mph. I'm hoping the resonator was just to kill the V4 sound since the GMT 800s don't have one.

I have the SLP tip. It really does not sound any different inside the truck. Barely sounds different outside.

Shark, is that the one that you posted that was about ~$116?
MDTAHOE is it plug and play (cut and play) did you need to mod the fender any?

Yes cut and play. It comes with instructions on where to cut the old exhaust. No other mods needed.

Yes it is. I saw one in the Home Depot parking lot last summer. Looks great.
