Hey guys,
My 5.0 in my '96 feels pretty anemic with the 3.42 gears. I still have good tires on it, so for the meantime im looking to get some more power out of it before I regear and lift it in the spring. I have read the factory Y pipe is a massive bottleneck on the system in these trucks.
Went down to the local exhaust shop...guy stared at me like I was an idiot and told me it would be around $500 to make me a new Y pipe...yes $500
I was planning on getting the PCM tuned and the rear O2's tuned out so I can run without a cat...
Does anybody make a bolt on setup for my truck thats an upgrade with or without a cat? For $500 i'll send my PCM out to get done and buy the parts and install them myself. I looked at shorty headers as well but the vortec ones are a small fortune and im not looking to remove the EGR at this moment.
Thanks guys!
