Done a little playing today with camera.... Here's my 07 chevy Duramax LBZ, with 4" MBRP Straight pipe (no muffler or cat), 7" tip, aFe turbo mouthpiece, intercoooler tubes, EFILive tuned by me, Banks Intake, intake resonator plugged, pcv re-route, PPE exhaust manifolds/up-pipes, Diamond Eye down-pipe, PPe fuel rail shimmed, Airdog 160 fuel pump, Transgo jr. shift kit, suncoast 1056 converter....it puts out around 560 hp.And I think it sounds pretty good.

I agree with the sound after following you from the Windrock parking lot back to the camp Saturday night. I like the way your Turbo comes on right a way too.

Thanks Gimp! If I didn't have it tuned, all you would hear at idle would be a "hissing" (turbo) sound....But through EFILive, I opened up the turbo vanes at idle, so you have the "rumble" idle. Then after 600rpms, the turbo vanes close back up and begin spooling.

dang that thing sounds good. I had a Ford 6.0 and just traded it for a new 6.7. I want to take all that DEF exhaust crap out anf straight pipe it. May check and see if Matt at Spartan has anything for that new motor yet.

Is there anything for the 6.7 yet? I am wondering if there is anything out yet that has been perfected for that motor

Intake, tuner, 5 inch exhaust..... Pretty impressive on stock tranny. We also got around 515-520 hp out of the 2011 duramax LML. They put some better components in from factory compared to the LMM motors.
