up pipes from manifolds to turbo ???

[chipster]

Ford is telling me that the up pipes from my exhaust manifolds to the turbo are the same part numbers (pipes, seals, flanges etc.) for the e99 and the 99.5-01 models. Is this true? Anyone know the part numbers?

pipes are shorter and the top flang bolts are a little closer together on the early 99...

Tousley Ford is the cheapest on everything ! Google them I have heard great things about them.

$360.00 for everything to replace my up pipes from the exhaust manifolds to the turbo housng. New nuts, bolts, pipes, Y, and seals.

I did find out that even though I have the smaller turbo everything from the manifolds to turbo housing is the same part numer per my girlfriends VIN vs. my VIN.

the up pipes are very differnt.... the turbo on the E99 sit lower in the valley.. there for the up pipes are shorter...that is unless some body did the swap before you bought the truck...

[codysweat]

either that or his girlfriend has an e99 too

I was having the ford parts guy look it up for her VIN and my VIN and they were coming up the same numbers. Guess I will have to just buy all this stuff again if I do a gt38.

Now the d66 is looking more likely in my future. I sure dont want to have to do these up pipes anytime soon.
