I searched on here for a while today but I couldn't really find anything related to mpg and removing the crush. I removed the crush , put a new, less constrictive cat on it ran 2.5 to a new magnaflow muffler and 2.5 out the back and proceeded to loose 25-40 miles off my tank. It is a 99, 4.0 5 speed with 3:07's I have a big k&n cone filter and a small exhaust manifold crack at the collector. That is a huge loss in mpg in my book. Can any body point me to some threads on this? I'm thinking about putting the crush back in it to see if that helps. Thanks
