dual exhaust

Looking for anything to increase fuel mileage. Is dual exhaust the way to go. Not looking for something loud. Any recomendations would be great. I have a 06 250 spd 6.0l. tks

This is my first diesal truck, still reading and researching all my options for maximum fuel effeciancy, I drive light on the foot to start. Most trips are long distance. Willl the single mbrp increase the air flow like a dual.

cat back no improvements its basically like putting a new high perf muffler on...turbo back new and larger down pipe and larger diameter piping and high performance muffler depending on if you even want the muffer...they also have kits that get rid of the cat so since you dont want alot of noise i wouldn't do it...mbrp makes a dual kit though so if your looking for duals thats probably your best bet...its your truck your money do what makes you happy...many guys here have duals i think they are called cool duals...you could always take this to the 6.0l forum too and they will be able to tell you techy stuff

catback pros-looks just as cool as a turbo back
cons-doesnt lower egts like a turbo back will

Turbo back pros- looks cool, sounds cool, lower egts
cons- louder
Egt's are important with these trucks...I would also get some gauges in the future if you decide on some mods

With my dyno max kit it helped it breathe better, actually made the throttle response snappier.
