Thanks Monsta for the help! Do you think a custom y-pipe would help me at all? Mine is a factory 99. Do you think it is restricted? Thanks again for the help!

Only reason I'd replace your factory "Y" is if it is damaged. Otherwise, the '99 design wasn't too bad IMO. I think Ford only changed it because people complained about "flutter".

Well, you should do what you want... it's YOUR truck.

I'm definitely not a specialist in fluid mechanics, so it could be that a better flowing system is actually worth the $$. It just doesn't seem like it to me.
