Kooks 1-7/8" x 3" Long Tube Headers & GREEN Catted Y-Pipe for 2015 and 2020 Ford F-150 Coyote 5.0L
The Kooks 1-7/8-inch long tube headers and GREEN catted Y-pipe kit provides the complete bolt-on exhaust upgrade for 2015 and 2020 Ford F-150 trucks with the Coyote 5.0L V8, replacing factory manifolds to deliver dyno-proven gains of 55 and 70 rear-wheel horsepower and 50 and 65 lb-ft of torque through equal-length primaries, merged collectors, and a high-flow 3-inch to OEM outlet GREEN catted Y-pipe that connects directly to the stock mid-section for unrestricted exhaust flow from low-end torque to high-RPM pulls.
Handcrafted from T304 aircraft-quality stainless steel with 3/8-inch laser-cut flanges, full TIG welds, and 400-cell metallic substrate GREEN catalytic converters, this system supports up to 850 HP while maintaining 49-state emissions compliance and improving throttle response for quicker acceleration during towing up to 13,000 lbs or daily highway passing. The precision design preserves ground clearance and heat management for work-ready trucks without sacrificing the deep V8 rumble that enhances cabin experience.
For F-150 Coyote owners seeking immediate power and torque improvements with durable, emissions-legal construction, the 1361H420 kit unlocks the engine's full potential for job sites, trails, or performance driving.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Does this fit my 2018 F-150 Lariat 5.0L?
A: Yes, direct bolt-on for all 2015 and 2020 F-150 with Coyote 5.0L -
Q: Will it cause a check engine light?
A: No, GREEN cats and extensions maintain proper O2 sensor function -
Q: What power gains can I expect?
A: 55 and 70 RWHP and 50 and 65 RWTQ on stock tune, more with ECU optimization -
Do Kooks headers require a tune after installation?
Yes. A professional tune is strongly recommended after installing long tube headers. The significant improvement in exhaust flow changes air fuel ratios and requires ECM recalibration to achieve optimal power output and safe operation. -
Will these headers void my factory powertrain warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer cannot void your vehicle warranty simply because you installed an aftermarket part unless they prove the component directly caused the failure. Consult your dealer for specifics on your situation. -

Headers & Manifolds
Performance headers and exhaust manifolds are among the most effective bolt-on upgrades for improving exhaust scavenging, increasing horsepower, and giving your engine a more aggressive exhaust note. Whether you're building a street machine, a track car, or a diesel work truck, the right header or manifold set unlocks real performance gains across the RPM range. Popular Upgrades Top-selling header and manifold products include long-tube headers from BBK and Kooks for V8 muscle cars and trucks, stainless steel shorty headers from Stainless Works for tight engine bay fitments, high-flow cast iron exhaust manifolds for diesel platforms from BD Diesel and ATS Diesel, and turbo manifolds from aFe Power and Invidia for forced-induction builds requiring optimized turbo positioning.
