good: loud, cool at first, better flow, more power, possibly more mpg.

bad: loud, annoying after awhile, $$, emmissions, o2 sensor, back tires.


jw... you did say you have the 5.0, right?

It will be loud and if you eliminate the cats you need a tuner to turn off the rear oxygen sensors, unless its pre 96.
