Borla S-Type Cat-Back Exhaust System with Dual Polished Tips (140842) - 2019-2026 Chevy Silverado & GMC Sierra 1500 5.3L V8 Regular Cab / Standard Bed
Wake up the high-performance spirit of your truck with the high-impact Borla S-Type Cat-Back Exhaust System. Custom-engineered for 2019 to 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 regular cab trucks equipped with the 5.3L V8 engine, this premium exhaust upgrade introduces Borla's legendary acoustic profile: the classic S-Type sound level. Formulated explicitly for driving enthusiasts and performance purists who crave a balanced, sport-tuned exhaust note under acceleration, this system is calibrated to give the 5.3L V8 engine a crisp, athletic growl. This configuration delivers a commanding exterior acoustic presence while relying on advanced straight-through internals backed by Borla's official No-Drone Guarantee to keep the cabin completely comfortable and drone-free during highway cruising, heavy towing, or daily commuting.
The internal engineering of the Borla 140842 targets key factory flow restrictions by incorporating an upgraded high-efficiency performance layout featuring a high-flow 3-inch primary midpipe that transitions cleanly into dual 2.75-inch mandrel-bent tailpipes. This specialized architecture utilizes ultra-smooth mandrel bends and patented multi-core internal geometry to maximize exhaust velocity and optimize scavenging, unlocking hidden horsepower, sharper throttle response, and enhanced fuel economy across the entire powerband. Built completely from premium-grade, aircraft-quality T-304 austenitic stainless steel, this highly durable cat-back assembly defends permanently against structural degradation, intense under-car heat cycling, and severe road conditions. The spent exhaust gases exit through a distinctive dual split side exit layout (one pipe exiting behind each rear wheel) finished with 4-inch round, rolled edge angle-cut bright chrome mirror-polished T-304 stainless steel tips. Precision CNC-manufactured for an accurate line-to-line bolt-on fitment, this system utilizes existing factory mounting locations and is backed by Borla’s legendary lifetime Million-Mile Warranty.
Chassis, Wheelbase & Regional Availability Notes: This performance exhaust system is precision-tailored out of the box exclusively for 2-door Regular Cab models equipped with the Standard Bed (6-foot 7-inch bed length) resting on a 126.5-inch wheelbase. Please note that this specific 126.5-inch wheelbase regular cab truck configuration is produced for global markets and is not available in North America.
