I am sure many of you guys have discussed this before, I did not seem to come up with much info on a quick search regarding truck exhaust systems.
I have a 1993 Ford F250 non turbo diesel. Banks offers a load of stuff from turbos to exhaust systems, but I am not interested in turbo charging this old IDI diesel primarily because of cost and the exhaust system seemed incredibly expensive for some bent pipe and a muffler. Would a larger exhaust be beneficial or is it a waste of money/time for the slight ( I presume) increase in performance? I go up a fairly steep grade up to just over 7000' routinely. At about 5000', the diesel is out of air as is evident by the increased black smoke. I have a K&N air filter, standard exhaust and automatic transmission. Any suggestions or recommendations to where I could purchase a exhaust system via mail order or is this pretty much a take it to a muffler shop and have them do it? Thanks, Mark
