Flowmaster and gas mileage
I got my series 40 flow saturady and put it on in the stock location with stock pipe and ran a turn down right after it in front of the axle and it sounds awsome...but anyway i know i kept my foot in it the first day i got it, and today coming back from school i noticed it drank more gas, i mean i lost about 5 mpg or so, and my truck is all stock but the flow...Did anyone elses do that or is it just mine?

You CANT go by the gas guage, its NOT accurate.
Try this:
When you FILL UP with gas, re-set the tripmeter to 00000
Drive around until you are close to E, or when the LF light comes on.
Fill up with gas, then divide how many miles you drove by how many gallons it took you fill it up again...
Thats the correct way to calculate MPG..
