Power increase
How much of a power increase would I get by running without a muffler on my 2.8 H.O.

A little bit, but then it sounds like a wheat truck, so I got a dynomax...

Yeah, you definately want a muffler. A Dynomax super turbo muffler by itself is about $30; the full cat-back w/dual pipes is only $160. http://www.summitracing.com
