(1999 ford super duty 5.4L 4x4 exteded cab full size bed w/123K miles)
hey ford guys, i have a question that i need some input, i know its not a boat question but need help anyway, i have an f-250 i bought in 1999, it's
(93-model yr) truck today has 51k orig miles, 460 efi, compleatly stock.
was thinking about doing something with exhaust (maybe dual )
and new k/n filter, will this help with gas miliage, or is this a myth with the 460 engine, that i am only going to get 10mpg no matter what i do,
any suggestions would help.
thanks ford guys.
jbergie

I've got a 1997 with a 460 in it and i've done the exaust and K&N filter on it with no real power gain or MPG gain, but it does sound alot better.
I have a '91 F250 4x4 Super cab with just about 470K on it. I did everything I could; hotter coil, good wires, K&N FIPK, removed the Cat, larger single exhaust pipe (3" to muffler & 3.5" out), have tried 5 different mufflers, my best overall gains, FlowMaster 3 chamber. My best to date as far as milage was 16mpg. On my recent trip, 1500miles I averaged 11.6. Now that included towing and traffic on the 205 (2hrs each way). I do run super 91oct.
hey squirtin, how did you say you got the 16 mpg, or am i reading this wrong?
and i am thinking i want to do something with the stock exhaust system,
any thoughts on which way to go, flow masters or what,
thanks jbergie

Where do you live ???
That will dictate what you can do.
squirtin, hey, i live in ca, i was just wondering about dual exhaust, and maybe filter, what do you think, i'm hearing from a lot of ford guys that
here in ca 10 maybe 11 mpg, is what to expect,
go with the FIPK, the drop in filter doesnt do much. i have one of the drop ins if you decide to go that way, its just sitting in my stock air box that i will never use.
