Availability of Jardine Exhaust
I've heard sporatic comments throughout this forum about Jardine Exhaust and how they give good power gains and better MPG. How many folks have Jardine Exhaust installed? Single or duels? Where did you get them, and what's the average cost?
Thanks for your help! I missed out on an excellent opportunity to get a Gibson system, so I'm back to my search!

Hi PaulT,
No personal experience here, but you can snoop the Jardine website at: www.jardineperformance.com
Prices are listed there. I just couldn't spend for a complete exhaust so I put on a Flowmaster 50 yesterday. Jury is not "in" yet on the loudness issue, since my wife hasn't heard it yet. But hey, it's *my* truck and it sure sounds sweet! Good luck!

Billy,
Did you install it yourself? Was it an easy install? Any cutting or welding required, or simple bolt on operation? I've considered it myself, but really like the look of duals! I visited the Jardine site, but couldn't find prices! I'll try jumping off your link after this is posted! Thanks...

Hi PaulT,
No, I did not do the install. Went to a local muffler shop where he did cut and weld (about 15 minutes worth).
There are prices on the Jardine site however, I couldn't find the exact application for my 97 F-150. Mike T (SuperChips) recommends Jardine and he really knows the scoop. However, with all the other stuff I'm doing this week (nerfs, alarm, carpet-liner), I just couldn't go the money for a complete exhaust. Have fun and let us know how it goes!

You should also note that Mike T recommends Gibson next for best performance.
