I've always heard good things about the magnaflow. not sure though about the the mpg increase.

Are you going catback? or are you putting in Magnaflow cats and muffler and tailpipe complete system? In my last Ranger I had a Magnaflow cat and a Dynomax muffler and tailpipe kit. I did get a little more power and a small gain in mileage. I have a flowmaster single in and dual out cat back system that I am so-so with and not entirely happy that I installed it. It did help a little with mileage but drones on and doesn't produce any noticeable power increase. Not a 4.0 but a 3.0 in my 2001 but the principle is the same. You get the most out of this upgrade if you put on a cold air intake as well.
