Ford 6.8 Y pipe mod opinions/ recommendations
While I was under the Excursion to fix a rusted cat converter hanger I noticed that y pipe to converter flange bolts were heavily corroded also. So this presents a good opportunity to do the y pipe mod while I replace the flange bolts. Did the exhaust manifold bolt replacement two years ago and put new y pipe down tube studs on the manifolds then so the top part of the y pipe should come off pretty easy. Anyway looking for opinions from 6.8 owners who have done the mod.
Have u noticed any improvement in MPG or power wise?
Have u noticed any exhaust flutter that the restricted stock y pipe was to have cured?
Where did u get our y pipe?
I am considering replacing the trash can sized muffler as well since its hangers are about done as well. Would like to go with a mild performance muffler there but not too loud as we do haul the family around in it. I put a Corsa system on the Wife's Mustang Gt and that thing barks loud enough.
