So I am starting to get used to my setup that I have and I want to be even louder. I talked to some friends and they said get headers off of ebay.
1) what benefits are there? and what exactly are headers.
2) what is the price range?
3) what is the difference between long tube and short?
4) Do they make headers for my truck? 06 4.6l 2wd. I looked on obx website but i didnt see any.
5) how hard are they to install?
I searched through the first 2 pages on the forums for headers but didnt find any specific answers.

Effectrive Search involves more that just scanning a couple pages - you need to leverage the Advanced Search feature here: https://www.f150online.com/forums/search.php
Plug in yer search terms (e.g 'headers'), a specific forum, or forums, and read away.
Here's a couple:
https://www.f150online.com/forums/ex...s-arrived.html
https://www.f150online.com/forums/ar...ow-2003-a.html
https://www.f150online.com/forums/ex...ong-tubes.html (just fyi)
AND - have you read the GREAT Sticky yet? https://www.f150online.com/forums/ex...ust-guide.html
Unfortunately, Search appears to still be partially non-functional at this momnet - you can always use Google to Search this site, though.
Good luck!

I read the exhaust guide from start to finish about a year ago when I first got my exhaust actually. I searched the exhaust guide with the keyword "headers" and only 2 results came up and neither of them explained anything about headers.
Sorry for being so lazy, i had a terrible migrain when I was researching last night .

That was my first thought but my friend told me high flo cats is a waste of time and I would be disappointed. He said to get headers. Idk who to believe

Search does still appear partially non-functional - it's been reported.
There is a lot of info here.

I have them so trust me. You want sound, the cats ate your most cost efficient route. Power, then headers high flows and custom tuning. You're talking a huge difference in price between headers and cats.

Also, it seems that the Maggie 94106's are the favorite around here. Will they fit on my 2006 4.6L? amazon says no (lol).

ah I see. So I guess performance peddler would be the best place to get high flow cats? did you install yours? do they just make the truck louder, or does it change the pitch of the sound.
