I think that guy from psn (Chris?) used to sell his pipes on Ebay. That is where I got mine. They fit like a glove with an early 99 spider, and a NBS 7.3 all aluminum intercooler.

Chris Lahmon is the guy's name. There is a thread going over on PSN about how guys are not really happy with him. Good product, great pipes, but he is really hard to get a hold of and guys are getting ticked about having to wait 3-4 months for their pipes. Here's a link: http://powerstrokenation.com/forums/...d.php?t=161913

If you get a pipe for each side from a SD 7.3 they will work with a little modding. When I had my stock turbo I did that but bought a 3rd pipe to cut up and make them fit better. Made 2 out of 3 if you know what I mean. If you do this, make sure you get steel ones, not aluminum. I ended up with 2 steel ones, and one aluminum, so had to get a boot in one place because welding wasn't an option.

How do you figure a SMALLER I/C is better than a LARGER one? Other than the price

It would be more expensive to do that. You'll need the larger plenums from a SD and the turbo flange is different. Some guys use the larger plenums and make a flange to fit their turbo. I don't know how much there is to doing all that when the E99 spider straps right in.
