No. There is soft codes that my OBD11 can pick up, but that is just for the valves being unplugged. But that doesn't affect the car one bit, including any emissions testing. No lights on the dash

I haven't yet. I did see the rust on the clamps. But honestly, I haven't heard any rattling or anything. It could be how I set it up. I cur the pipe to about a half inch short of touching the VPS pipes, then clamped them in. I guess I'll see how it does after a certain amount of time.

@@BiszyMC Glad to hear that. Thanks for the reply, super excited to install it, sounds amazing on your car!

@notgunnar1336 No problem man. And thanks. I really love it myself. Only thing I did to the exhaust too lol. VPS and valves unplugged. Perfection lol

Yes it does. I love it.

@@BiszyMC I have a 23, if you look at my latest video I did a cold start. My car burbles when the transmission is in S even with the full exhaust no mods. I just feel like it’s not loud enough inside the car. I have the OEM sport resonator but I think I can just take it out and do the VPS pipes.

Here is my comparison video. th-cam.com/video/YVgi54hEu-I/w-d-xo.html One thing I've noticed is there seems to be a lot of sound dampening in these. I drove wjth the back seats down, and it made a big difference. I should do a video of that, lol.

It does unfortunately seem to quiet down after it warms up with the pops and burbles. No clue why either.

@@BiszyMC yeah it’s definitely weird because if somebody drives by you when you’re outside it’s decently loud. The noise canceling in these cars is too good lol.

No, there is no drone at normal operating speeds in town or at highway speeds. There is a bit of drone at around 2500 rpm say while climbing a hill if you downshift but its not bad.

My Samsung galaxy S21 will beg to differ but I guess its how the mic picks up the sound lol. So in the video there seems to be drone but in person, there's hardly any.

@@BiszyMC okay thanks! Do you know if a muffler delete is a good option? Like what’s the difference with sound between the two

@@RayanJowharchi that I don't know. I'd assume it would be louder lol. Im sure there's a video on it. I do know that a catless downpipe also makes a difference. I have the stock downpipe still because I live in 1 outd of the 5 counties in Wisconsin that has emissions crap. Im afraid of codes popping up that will fail my emissions test. Stupid I know. This exhaust mod is all I planned on doing.

I love it, it's not too loud Yet Aggressive. the pops are way more prominent. and to top it off it it doesn't Drone on the highway at around 2000 RPM unless its between 2300-2700 ish RPM. was not very Expensive either.

Engine is good, transmission is junk.

Delete the AFM, or disable it for now. It will for sure give you lifter problems internal problems if not pushing 8 cylinders at all times

Yeah now days I'm not a fan of General motors. And a FWD V8 is just stupid

I agree.

Did yours break down?

@@CookinWithJames i never had one but I put 2 transmissions in my used 09 Pontiac G6 GT Sedan in the first year i had it. Thankfully I had warranty the dealer sold me.

Lol yeah i ment traction control lol. And poorly corrected myself lol. Shit happens I guess lol

So if u can help out let me no I can send pictures

@@roberthicks2832 how much was the transmission you got? cause i just got a 06 SS yesterday and i hear a lot about the transmissions on these cars being bad

Exactly

Not selling mine, as it stands since Chevy discontinued the Impala it makes my 2009 the last SS.

Because they were the 3.8 L V6 so they supercharged them

@@BiszyMC I know still have one, you said in the video you were not sure if the 09 was supercharged. I have an 04 Indy SS and the 09 SS.

Where in the Video? I haven't watched it in a while lol

@@BiszyMC Right after 3:00 you said you were not sure if was supercharged

Unfortunately it is. A lot of torque steer too.

Yeah I know right. I kinda wanted one before too lol. And thats bad ass man

My friend never had Trans mission issues with it ever. it was practically everything else except the drive train that was starting to fall apart lol

So you heard Absolutely correct brotha. Their transmissions are 100% thee worst ever. I had two Ford Tauruses a 2001 and 2005. And transmission took a shit on both of them 😏😠

Probably not but depends on how it’s been kept up

Yes

KayKay Hemenway try the mechanic shop, I have an 09 they’re cool cars

It was just a 4 speed auto. I think it was the same one they put in the other Impalas

The 06-09 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport package came with a stock 5.3L LS4 in conjunction with the FWD 4T65E-HD transmission. Unfortunately this particular model is fairly notorious for utterly destroying the transaxle well within what's considered to be the prime of the car's expected lifespan. The Impala wasn't the only vehicle inflicted with this problem, this actually became quite an issue for most Manufacturers with sedans utilizing similar GM based FWD V8 drivetrains at the time. I would imagine that when looking back at it now, bolting a V8 producing 323lbs•ft of torque onto a mildly beefed up 4T65E transmssion that's only been designed to handle the 214lbs•ft from a 3.5L V6 was probably not the best call... Especially being that with a few minor modifications the 4T80E was probably a much better candidate for the job. Thankfully if you're like me and you own one of these front tire burning beasts, this small hurdle can be easily overcome by having your local shop perform a complete stage 3 rebuild on your trans... But be ready to cough it up, because likely to set you back anywhere from $2500.00 to $3000.00 after labor cost. If you are confident enough with your own mechanical skills, to acquire all of the parts that are required to overhaul the transmission was somewhere in the ballpark of $850.00 or so... Well, that's pretty close to what it all cost last time I priced everything online 6 months ago. 🤔 🧰🔧 🥵 🔩🛠 🤬

I have a 2016 sport ram and i smoke a ss this past sat !!!

Deniz Eken really?

@@Durango214 He wasn't trying or something wrong with his car. On paper the SS smokes that Ram

Really,, I'm thinking about buying one,, please tell me why,,

@@christopherhoppp8979 I have a 302V8 Fox Mustang and I prefer being pushed forward rather than pulled. All said and done I do like FWD V8's but just prefer RWD.

LOL

No fun? Lmao that's a huge reach.. most people wouldn't even kno the difference

I have an 08 with 54K miles. I have a rwd corvette too and I don't care where the power comes from as long as it's there when I need it. As for the torque steer, it's not bad at all. I love my SS, it gets after it when I need it to and is comfortable to drive.

Yeah i Agree. At the time i found it fun. But I am glad I never got one. Was the first 300+ hp car I drove and didnt expect that much acceleration or torque steer.

No FWD Chevy is a hot rod. That's certain

Yea yea yea

Well it could be a Pontiac lol

If you replace the torque converter with aftermarket early on, it'll save the trans. When the shifts get longer, you're basically on borrowed time.

Robert Lengyel but v8 is made for more burnouts and drag races v6 wouldnt last if u ran it like an ss lol u need to study more my friend has a 2017 v6 limited impala ( new only 45.000 on the odo) 303hp its fast and responds good but its nothing like the ss...

Tony Montana study more my friend?? Hmm, I've been to many drag races, I've seen v8s get blown away by 4 cylinders and get crushed by many v6s. In fact myself I have smoked a 2009 impala ss, and a few mustang gts..

That's a well tuned v6, that's why. If you give this 5.3 a tune and custom exhaust, it'll easily push 400. gm likes to undertune their cars to ensure maximum reliability. Ford does the same thing. I have a 3.9 v8 from jaguar in my LS and it makes 280. 1.4 extra litres and only 23 hp is really lame though (lol). My engine is not tuned at all either. You just need to take it to a shop and get a good tune man. Easy and fun! One shop told me I can make an easy 360-370 hp with a custom exhaust setup and a tune! I just can't afford it at the moment!

It's the low end torque you get 330lbs at 3500 rpm vs 240lbs on a v6 at 5000 rpm. Fwd with 300hp is like 330 compared to rwd.

You got to realize the car is a lot newer even if its a v8 it was from like 06 to 07 all this newer cars have a lot more hp thats the point cars get better and better including the 4 cylinders try racing a 2012 v8 model u will get smoked

Jacob Moon 😂

bLu what?

Biszy what's the worst problems you have experience with SS

Not sure other than it being front wheel drive. I never owned one. I only did a review of it from a dealership

They’re notorious for transmission issues

Computer and transmission will go south no way around it

chriss Whites please explain

Jack bron yes its naturally aspirated. I should have said that.

60 more hp then the supercharged v6 also

blackericdenice it would with heads and a cam

Heads and cam is a lot of work. The Ford only need to turn up the boost. That's why I bought a 2016 F165.

blackericdenice true but the LS4 is simpler and more reliable, as well as being much older.

Tell that to the man when you pay him the money you lost racing a complex 3.5 ecoboost.

blackericdenice no one said these were to buy if you want to race them, just a fun little commuter with some extra pep.

Hey bro my car same problems ...but currently I have the "oil pressure low turn off engine" light. What would you recoomend?

@@SATXSpurs I'd reccomend you fix that or get someone who can.

@@SATXSpurs check the oil pressure sensor. That's usually what will cause that.
