Anyone have any experience with aftermarket exhaust applications that
improve performance?
I just had the Aero Turbo muffler with 3" e-pipe installed. The truck
now sounds neat, but I don't believe I've realized the boost in
performance and gas mileage this product boasts. I'm still getting
about 12 mpg.
I'm now considering replacing the 2 cats with a single aftermarket 3"
cat. I was told that this will add approx. 30 horses.
Am I wasting my money?

30 HP? Not likely, not even if you went from stock to headers and a complete
system all the way back. I'd say the most you'd ever see is 20HP at best
(with a full setup), and you'd have to open up the intake to see any of
those gains.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: '93 Bronco w/351 - Exhaust |

I just removed the muffler on my '93 and got some improvement (no, I
didn't dyno test it). It wasn't loud either, I prefer NOT to draw
attention to myself.
However, my step-daughter saw to it that my Bronco was totaled, of
course that 18-wheeler just jumped out in front of her, ran a yellow
light and turned right in front of her, she hit the "back end" before
she could even step on the brakes (how dumb to I look... don't answer
that  all this is behind me now. -PapaRick

Depends on how you define wasting money.
If they claim 30 horses, you can possibly get 3 - 10.
If you want a significantly better mileage, you need
a different approach.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: '93 Bronco w/351 - Exhaust |

I got a lot of improvement just by removing my muffler, so IMHO adding
an aftermarket muffler (just to sound cool and annoy the neighbors) is a
waste of money. As for the gas mileage, who told you that a muffler
(or lack thereof) would change your mileage? Well it won't, so there.
If you want to increase your HP, you need chrome valve covers,
everyone knows that. -PapaRick

I presume you had it Dyno tested "before", so how did it compare to
"after"? If this is just seat-of-the-pants opinion, then you got your
30hp so let it go.
Btw, my Bronco never got much better than 12mpg with or w/o a muffler.
