I hate seeing rusted brackets and driveshafts on a brand new truck. Ford should stop skimping on paint. Cool headers! 👍
Borla! Get the Borla!! Just watched a 7.3 yesterday with the Borla and it sounded absolutely incredible!!
Watching on iphone and the oldlady says’honey that too loud’ 😎 little does she know what coming 😂🤣
Sounds amazing can’t wait to see what it will sound like with intake and cat back performance system
Beautiful truck. I could see that truck pulling my Mustang to the track.
My headers will deliver in a couple days, 2WD planning on true duals w/ 3" magnaflow turbo mufflers.
Supprised the ford dealer did it with no cats lol
Love the guys at 5Star!
I think it sounds perfect with the stock cat back. Anything louder imo would annoy me in the cabin.
I like the sound. Be cool to see duel exhaust on it. 3” straight out with loud mufflers such as Flowmaster or Magnaflow etc.. Also 4” 15 degree cut off tips. I think it will look really good. Make it a very deep tone. Some where 24hz.
The new love 7.3 🤤🔥💙
That's the power it should have had factory. With the 10speed I'd love to see what that does in the 1/4
Nice to see you cut the cats off. That’s always my first mod.
oh that color looks nice on that truck.
Sounds Great😎
I like ARH headers I have a set on my 2000 mustang GT with a set of Lunati cams.....😁
For essentially just a tune and headers thats not bad at all!

And the hilarious part is a dealership agreed to install it even though they're required to comply local/state/federal regulations when it comes to emissions & SAE. However there are some exceptions for pre-emissions required vehicles. Nevertheless beautiful sounding beastie.
So do you need an tune with these headers with cats ?
Install a flow master super 44 with resonators. Real nice throaty sound with no rasp or over the top “clap”. I have it on my 5.7 hemi 1500 and it sound really nice. I was quite surprised

Yes it has a hard limiter/fuel shutoff that cannot be removed even with tuning.
what's funny is at 1:28 you said it was an easy install, well i just got mine installed an these guys had a hard time with mine took them a week to get it done. The ones i have done have nearly as much space left over as those.
Have you guys tried the sport mode yet
'Zilla is a Beast!
Need a good borla exhaust mufflers
I wish all vehicles came with stainless steel exhaust!
So, you suspect that a cam swap and/or nitrous/supercharging, along with exhaust improvements, will deliver even more power? Thanks for the tip.

Are these the 1 7/8” headers or 2” ?

They look good but they are not long tubes. These are a mid length header. Sure they will make more power than the stock manifolds but real long tubes and and a full 3 inch exhaust is what everyone is waiting for.

Hearing it idle for ten seconds would’ve been nice at least. No need to bounce off the limiter 30 times.
I’m trading in my 2017 F-250 Diesel the 2021 F-350 Diesel, I watched about 20 of the videos regarding the capabilities of the 7.3 gas when I saw they offered it as an option. I am gonna stick with the diesel. There is no comparison whatsoever. Hands down, the diesel is the way to go if you want better fuel economy and of course superior towing. Great video though! Beautiful truck too. That truck sounds like a hotrod.
