Most likely the 12 hp gain comes somewhere around 5-6000 rpms. If you’re planning on drag racing it might help. Otherwise your just changing the sound of the exhaust.
And I'll likely never run that high. But I do want a little sound. It won't sound like my Indian but I'd like to be able to hear it.

Even though this is a 4 cylinder it makes 300hp and getting 5% gain on the exhaust is not that outlandish. Pretty easy to 10hp if switching from a chamber muffler to a straight through. Probably get another 1-2 hp for every removed bend.

I wouldn't swap the exhaust unless it's for sound. The hp to dollar is pretty low. I will most likely go with a muffler delete and a glass pack since I am looking for clearance.
I would love to hear your results when you get around to it. I put glasspacks behind longtube headers on my '78 f-150 and it was obnoxiously loud. Granted it dumped before the rear tires. But the tone was fantastic.

Get a muffler shop to remove your muffler and run a straight pipe.

I love your license plate bracket but I think that's the extent of me purchasing advice. 🤣🤣

Jokes aside who wants to do this? I'm curious how bad it would actually sound.

Rough Country makes one. FWIW, one of the Bronco youtubers put it on and said it was good. It did sound ok in the video.
