Introduction
The GM Duramax 6.6L Down-pipe Back Race Exhaust (2001–2007) is a direct-fit system for LB7, LLY, and LBZ trucks that opens exhaust flow from the turbo downpipe back. Choose 4" or 5" stainless to reduce backpressure, drop EGTs, and sharpen throttle response for off-road use. Keywords like LBZ Duramax exhaust and 2006 Duramax exhaust map cleanly to this fitment.

- 4" or 5" stainless steel downpipe-back configuration
- Mandrel-bent tubing with OE-style hangers for secure, straightforward install
- Race system: no bungs included; built for off-road calibration
- Optional 4" or 5" muffler for sound control
- Hardware and clamps included
Benefits
