4.9 L I-6 Performance

Hey guys,

1993 F-150 2WD.

I-6 (4.9L) w/Fresh new E4OD.

Looking for some Ideas for performance mods.

Will be doing a lot of Highway driving, and pulling Horse trailer on weekends.

will consider bolt on options, looking for a little more performance, and of course MPG boost.

CHIP?
Performance injectors?
What's your take on it?

Thanks,

Michael

I put a Flowmaster 40 Series on my Staight 6, sounded pretty good when you step on the gas. Then, I cut my rear cat, I am no saying do this, but I did it anyway. Allot more rumble. I am planning to cut my first cat and gut it out, I was told my motor can't breath because of the cats. I don't care what everyone thinks about cutting the cats, it's my truck not theirs...

As far as the Flowmaster goes, I can notice a difference in speed at mid-high rpm and torque. Just do what you want to do on your truck don't let people dictate you.
