intake upgrade

i cant find the old topic we had going on this modification, but i said its worth upgradeing from our intake to the superduty intake, many people were unsure if there would be any point to this mod, we looky here, i found a pic for ya!
you decide if its worth doing, especially since its direct bolt on for the intercooled guys, all i have to do for mine is change my orange x-pipe yubes

which one? the "x-pipe" is called a compressor manifold, pn 6k889, the orange boots are intake manifold tubes, pn 6c640(same as cac tubes), the intake is called an intake manifold cover pn 9e434, ford considers the intake as part of the cylinder head on our trucks

Will a late 99 to 03 x pipe fit on our trucks with these intakes? I thought the turbo side was different.

you must have the early 99 x-pipe, the x-pipe outlet is the same as the later trucks, but they come with step down orange boots to meet the intake, the early 99's used the same cover as ours, not the best shot but its all i have on here right now, all you have to do after installing the bigger intake cover is add the other orange boots, the are a connector instead of a reducer

Ok,I got it now. When I get around to adding an intercooler I could also add the larger intake covers.

C00n, if your going to do the intake covers, you need to ditch the crappy x-pipe and get a ram air like what I have, it flows a lot better then the x-pipe
