Looking for a set of long tubes for my 2001 5.4l
F150. Can anybody recommend some brands.

 

Do a search grasshopper with these words Dynatech, OBX, Pacesetter, and Kooks (Lightning headers but will fit no prob). Dnyatech has a system as does OBX, the other 2 need custom pipes after the header collector I'm pretty sure. I'm tempted at getting my exhaust done as my cats are about cooked I think, getting Kooks or Dynatechs and custom pipes after them. There is plenty to read upon searching, many have done this.

 

Search engine does wonders... We have been down this road several times.

Done...next thread plz

 

You can do a better price than $650 imo
Pacesetters are cheap but they work

 

Ya you could get the pacesetters, cats, and custom tubing but it would still be real close to 650

 

Just FYI if you happen to live in California LT's are illegal.

Here's cheaper for ya, good point on the legality of them though. Johnny Law might put end to it!

 

I actually got pulled over by a bike cop who said my truck stinks and I need to get it check out lol. I have no cats though and yes my super rich tune and all that sure doesnt help with the catless smell.

 

That's funny, you shoulda asked Eric Estrada where his cats were then and why his bike can smell the same. Shouldn't matter or smell that bad, my bro has a 95 stang and runs no cats, still can pass emissions test with a super lean tune though. Ordinarily, my 64 Ford with lots of power and dual 3" doesn't smell bad either. At any rate, laws law and if cats are law, so be it. Stupid how they outlaw long tubes that'll go into cats, what's the diff really. I'd think it'd be better, more efficient.

As a side note, to stop big brother from getting rid of performance upgrades like they're trying,( and I'm sure you've seen this article in all car mags lately), join the SEMA group like they suggest. How lame would all THESE sites be if all you could do to your truck is wash it and talk about doing that. Oh wait, some might consider that wasting water too. How gay would our hobby become. Rant over, go buy your headers people!!!!!!!!!

 

yes sir

the resonator systems are $475

 

the're even cheaper on the sparktech motorsports website

 

Would you guys recommend getting them with or without the cats??? I was planning on running the magnaflow hi flow cats and prob dynomax bullets with an x-pipe

 

Get them without then, have a custom setup made.

 

then get 'em with cats
