Talking Added benefits.

I put a BTM on my truck yesterday to help it breath better. I pull a 30' 5th wheel camper and wanted to lower my EGT's. Working on a budget, I opted for the BTM instead of 4" or 5" exhaust. The unexpected added benefit I see is in my tach. My truck used to go 58 mph @ 2K rpm. Now I can go 65 @ 2k rpm.
I'm hoping this means a little better mpg's.

Hmmm, I went with a complete 4" exhaust and there was no difference in rpm vs. mph on the highway. Did notice a big difference on my pyro.
