What i need are the orange boots that come off the turbo y-pipe to to the intake plenums. They are about 2.5-3 inches long. Does anyone know the dimensions on these?
If you could provide a link to the correct part on intakehoses.com that would be awesome. But just knowing the correct size boots would be very helpful. This is for a '97 powerstroke with stock turbo, plenums and no IC.

If you havent upgrade the orange boot between the intake and turbo, you should with the boot you bougth, and James is right, and they are 2" ID.
I thought about this too. It appears that it has been changed as it's black, not orange. I cannot see any cracks or any wear that may indicate that it needs to be changed. The previous owner must have changed it out.
Also the boots that i ordered look to be the correct ones but are shorter than needed by a good two inches. So I'm sending them back and i've ordered the right ones yesterday.
Update. I got in the right parts and replaced them. Boy what a difference fresh turbo boots make! I was loosing quite a bit of boost.
Now i did notice today when working in the truck the two fuel lines underneath the turbo y pipe are in need of replacement. They run from the fuel filter to the fuel pump i believe. They don't appear to be leaking yet, but they are definately in need of replacement.
