Default Longtubes for 2013 6.2 4x4

Just as it states. Looking for a new set of long tubes for my 2013 6.2 4x4 ecsb. lifted 8" so diff clearance isn't a huge issue i don't believe. Want to see what you guys suggest. I have had a set of ARH's on a NNBS before and liked them but they are quite pricey. So im here to see what you guys think and the power gains worth it?

diff clearance might not be an issue, but the front driveline interfering with the crossover/y pipe might be. just thought id mention that.

I've run pacesetters on 3 trucks and loved them. Never had any issues and the sound is awesome

I'm in the same boat as you pal, none of the lesser expensive manufacturers (pacesetter, texas speed, obx) have a direct bolt on set up for our truck. Only kooks and arh.

mainly wanting a bolt on kit that will merge to where the factory flange is right before the 3rd cat/resonator. although the rest of the exhaust certainly isn't stock the factory flange is still there

Might as well just get kooks, since the 2014 trucks are out and different that is the focus for new production

I doubt any of the cheaper header companies care. Like b rad said, production is turning towards 2014+

We install a lot of Kooks here and are always happy with what they have to offer. I personally feel like the gains are worth the cost, especially if you have other modifications in mind down the road (cam, blower).

Kooks or ARH are your best bet.
