Hey guys, newbie here. Glad to see an Expedition forum
I bought my wife an 01 EB 5.4 off of ebay a couple of months ago. She went from an Escape to an Expedition, so the size and mileage change was quiet a shock to her! She's gotten use to the size, but with the price of gas now a days she doesn't love the truck. She's getting almost 14 going to work which is about 3-5 miles away and she never gets about 40. That's not bad IMO.
Back to the topic. I was wondering what i should do to help out the mileage/performance. I just ordered a K&N FIPK and i'm looking to match it with some exhaust. Since it is my wife's and she carries our 13 month old daughter around alot, i don't want a lot of cab noise, but i do want to turn a head.
What is a better choice--cat back system (and what kind??) or a muffler swap?
EDIT: I guess i should have looked about 2 forums down before i posted this! Sorry, i can just read some in that section.
