changing muffler...

i'm thinking of putting flowmaster glass packs on my truck... I assume I can just swap them for my factory mufflers and have no issues but i just want to make sure that with better flow out the back I don't need better flow in the front...

I have a Flowmaster on my 93 F-250 with the 5.8. My old muffler was rusted out, and I felt a noticable increase in horsepower with the Flowmaster on it. I do have a K&N air filter and a throttle body spacer and the cat. punched out though.
