Alright guys, sorry to start another header thread, but after looking around at quite a few others and online research, whats the best option(s) for the gen 3 coyotes?

I seen another thread where the 15-17 headers do not fit on the 18+ and he beat the piss out of one of the primaries. I for one am not trying to do this. I havent seen really anyone else but kooks and arh being used or talked about for these cars. Kooks was used on the first NA 500whp car i believe, ARH is used on steeda's silver bullet build. Corsa looks like a good deal price wise, but havent been able to find performance figures. SW is usually right around the same performance as kooks or arh and a little cheaper.

Just trying to see bang for buck who's headers are going to do the best for the new cars. I know Beefcake had a good comparison write up for the 15's a while back, havent seen anything like that for the 18's.
Most of the header brands will make very similar power to one another. As to fitment I know for a fact that the Kooks, ARH and SW/SP headers that work on the 15-17 work on the 18 as well. The only real change from the 15-17 to the 18 is the 02 extension. They use different connectors. So the 18 specific part numbers come with the correct extension harness. That being said you can extend the factory sensor without extensions to make it work.

We're running the Kooks 1-7/8" headers with offroad legs on our 2018. We made some sick power with them along with a Lund Racing E85 tune. 476rwhp to be exact on Power by the Hour's dyno here in the FL summer heat. These were the 15-17 part number headers.

If you have any other questions please feel free to give us a call. We're here to help.

Man I wish we had real e85 here in AZ to run a straight e85r tune. But ARH catted plus ff tune and e54ish still yielded nice numbers even on a 112 degree day. I have to agree with the above for fitment as well from personal observations as well as anecdotal.

Can these Kooks be installed without dropping the K member?

I'd prefer to avoid that if possible. CJ Pony did a Corsa set just popping out the mounts and brackets on a 2018.

Would stock gen 3 headers fit on gen 2?
