    Anybody have experience with replacing their headers?

    What is the main difference between a short / full length header?

    I have a 2018 Tundra double cab limited.

    Longe tube headers have longer tubes from each cylinder, like each one is 2-3.5 feet (guess?) long. Short tube headers are very short and they have the same exhaust flange (end of the header) as the factory exhaust manifold, so you can just bolt the short tube header to the factory's exhaust pipe leading away from the engine.

    DirtyDeeds/BAMufflers did some tests on shorty headers and, if I recall correctly, said they don't do "Jack Squat." Long tube headers give you a whole lot of "Jack Squat."

    Do a search on with the on "shorty headers" and add the username "dirtydeeds."
