I wanted to get owners opinions on the LTH Long Tube Header install and quality. I purchased the 1-7/8" eco2 High flow headers,
FDLH00028T.

I had my LTH branded headers installed by a shop who said the fit and finish was excellent. Mine seem to be doing great, quality appeared to be excellent when I got them.

Have your headers ceramic coated before installation, if possible.

Lower under-hood and IATs.

Thank you. - Did you get a tune after install?
- What performance charactistics did you notice after install.
- Did you get a CEL dash light or code.
Thank you for your help.

I was already tuned and there was no retune needed. I can’t honestly say that I felt a huge difference in power, top end was maybe stronger 🤷‍♂️. No CEL light or code was triggered.

I opted out for LTH and kept the factory Tri-Y's. IMO a quality 3" catback is much more effective. Others will disagree with me haha.

From what I have read, Installing high quality LTH adds more performance benefits than replacing cats back. But I have not witness either way.

You don't need a retune, this ECU is very good at adapting to them. You WILL notice a difference in exhaust volume and tone for sure.

Thanks

Hey there! I am not an owner of this system personally, but I have been told by many of our customers that they really do like the quality and sound from LTH. Of course, comes down to personal preference and opinion, but they do have a Titan finish for more durability and manufactured in house here in the US.

Feel free to reach out to me here at Lethal Performance and I'll gladly answer any additional questions you may have! Thanks!

Would you mind taking heat measurements of your LTH headers like 6" from the manifold and post them. I will post my OEM header tempuateurs and my Ceramic coated LTH headers and post. This way people will have some sort of heat measurements from all. I want to see just how much the differences are from OEM.
Thank You
