Re: flowtech

I've always heard they're kinda bottom of the barrel, but I've got em on my truck and I like em just fine. I got the flowtech long tubes because they're cheap, and since I'm just runnin a stock 350 (daily driver) I didnt need anything fancy. Just make sure you double gasket them. I need to do that to mine, the stock single gasket that comes with em kinda sucks, leaks every now and then...

Re: flowtech

Cheap, but functional. There are better, but they'll cost more.

Re: flowtech
