Is anyone on here running the flow tech 1-5/8 primary turbo headers for your custom turbos kits? Just curious thoughts of these?

I bought a set. I figured for $270, WTF, let's see what they look like. I'm not convinced they could fit let alone what sort of routing they lend themselves to.

Which looking at other's headers, they all go down as well. Or too far down?
Flowtechs go straight down which works on 11-14, 15 up need to have the outlets facing more forward

These aren’t headers as much as log manifolds.

But the only thing that really changed from s197 to s550 in these areas is the brace in front of the steering rack.

Or just what I’ve seen in my experience fitting and modifying this 11/14 kit to my 15

Different design as your outlets are facing forward, the flowtechs point downward

So tell me the difference in the s550 coyote engine and the s550 that would stop this from working.

You can use an s197 k member on an s550. The engines are physically the same. The only difference is in front of the steering rack.

S197 kmember fits a s550??? Look at the location of your header outlets and visualize where the flowtechs would be in relationship to that.
