    K&N FIPK Intake and Flowmaster exhaust

    You all think that if i go back to the exhaust shop and have my tail pipe cut off, 3" and have a 2.5" put back on would help with my low end/backpressure/mileage?

    computer chips/programs

    K&N FIPK Intake and Flowmaster exhaust

    I'll never buy a GM, ugly trucks. I drove the truck today and i've confirmed that the mileage is worse the then stock, but i still love to drive it. We were suppose to go up to Columbus OH to drive/buy an Explorer. So it's on the way out unfortunatly.

    K&N FIPK Intake and Flowmaster exhaust

    I'm glad someone has good results:( My wife is wanting to sell the Expedition because of the fuel consumption/cost. I'm trying to hold her off because i love the truck, but i don't know.

    My little pig

    Is this a daily driver? 4.56 if so since you've got a V8, but i always say the lower the better. I had 4.56's with 35s on my explorer and it was a bit of a dog with the V6. Right now i've got 5.13's and 37's on it.

    mirror blinker

    BTW, he was right, turn the mirror to the side and you have 2 small phillips screws in there. If you have a magnetic screw drive it makes life easier!

    K&N FIPK Intake and Flowmaster exhaust

    Just an update. Not much change. Mileage is still where it was at stock. Only difference now is that when you get on it, it takes more fuel :D
