3-Inch Turbo Downpipe for Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 6.6L Duramax Diesel
Replace the factory turbo-outlet downpipe section on selected 2011–2015 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500 HD trucks with a 6.6L LML Duramax turbo-diesel engine. The 3-inch tubing and smooth bends are designed to reduce restriction in this section and support smoother exhaust flow. Welded construction and the included heat wrap help the pipe withstand heat near the turbocharger.
This page also offers a 3-bolt flange version for listed 2015–2016 Silverado, Sierra, Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana applications. Select the version that matches your original connection; for 2015 vehicles, inspect the factory pipe rather than choosing by model year alone.

Check Before Ordering
- Inspect the original downpipe connection, particularly on 2015 vehicles, and compare its flange, pipe shape, mounting points and sensor-port locations with the selected product images.
- For a 2016 Duramax downpipe, select a listed 3-bolt flange variant only after confirming that the original vehicle connection matches. The V-band variant is listed for 2011–2015 trucks.
- This product is for the listed diesel applications, not gasoline engines or unlisted LBZ, LMM or L5P Duramax applications.
- It is not a complete DPF, EGR or DEF delete kit; downstream exhaust and emissions equipment are not included. Do not use it to remove, bypass or disable required emissions-control equipment.
- Some factory hardware may need to be reused unless additional hardware is specifically shown in the package image. Professional installation is recommended; allow the exhaust to cool completely before removal.
