Flowmaster 50

I have searched information on the forum regarding after market mufflers. It appears that the Flowmaster Deltaflow 50 is the way to go if I wish good sound without any major increased noise in the interior of the vehicle. My question is that information seems to be conflicting in reference to added power or fuel economy by simply replacing the muffler. Has anyone seen any benefit with the exception of sound??

I put a Flowmaster cat back kit on mine in a attempt to gain MPG, the thing of it is, I didn't get any, Probably because the sound is great so I hit the pedal more!!

You're not going to notice any power or MPG differences with a simple muffler replacement.. nothing substantial anyway. You're still limited by several other factors.. but it'll sound cooler!
