Who's Done Headers? Worth It?

Hey guys whats up? Well i want to put headers on my truck, most likey shorties because of emission laws. But my question is who has done them and what kind of gains did you see? Also how will it effect the sound?


Hope to hear

Daniel

Not enough to be worth it. Spend the money elsewhere!

I think a supercharged f150 owner would probably benefit from headers more than an N/A f150 owner.

Looks like they did more than just headers, and those are only shorties.

i have had shorties in a few trucks, all jba's and they did really wake up the vehical quite a bit. i am not sure how much on the f-150. the headers will make the truck louder if u have an aftermarket catback.
