head gaskets and my truck's Up Pipe as well as my truck has 200,000 miles, so I thought why not just replace my OEM up pipe while I was at it. There was no leak from the OEM pipe, just that it had to be replaced The pipe refused to line up even with all my connections loose, so I had to use two ratchet straps in order to get it Furthermore there are no heat shields, so you will either have to wrap with header wrap or make a bracket and fix a heat shield from the old pipe, which is how I solved the problem. We tried repositioning the truck to no avail and even fired up the truck again it kept leaking. It ended up that I had to disassemble the turbo and replace the up pipe with an OEM one. I just threw this pipe away. Having said that, the quality of the pipe appears good, but it does not appear to have the correct angles for everything to line up accordingly.
In my line of work, I'm a powerstroke mechanic. On my up pipes, I have put a lot. With bellow flex, this type should be able to hold up well. The only problem is that it is a small one. The flange had a difficult time being seated into the The turbo had to be rocked up for me to sit in Despite this minor issue, this is a fantastic product. I have several on and they have never broken like the factory ones do. Overall, I would give it five stars. You guys are doing a great job.
It was the Y pipe I needed to replace the split one which I had previously had. It was only when I pulled it out that I realized it was split. A weird humming noise kept coming from my car when I accelerated. Compared to the previous one, this one felt very solid and substantial No issues were encountered during the installation. It was decided that I would go ahead and do it The lower up-right was purchased as a replacement My next question is about the pipe, since they might have problems with fitment, but the overall installation went well. You should always check the truck for air leaks as soon as it's started before the pipes are heated. Now that I've had it set up for about a month, it's working perfectly Even after all these years, it's still going strong.
Don't buy it. There will be no fit for the pipe. knew that I would have to waste a few dollars, and I did okay with it. The order was placed in Apr 2021 and it wasn't completed until Aug 2021. The timing was off as well. In order to align the Y-axis I had to use the turbo pedestal and turbo hot side for positioning the turbo hot side All bolts at the exhaust manifold and the egr cooler are loose. Despite the fact that it was way too short, a quick measurement revealed that the factory unit measured almost 8 7/8" while this unit measured 8 5/16". Seeing that it's too late to return it, I'm going to create some sort of art ornament from.
It fits perfectly and there were no issues during installation or integration. There is actually better airflow in this unit, less turbulent air than in the Ford factory ones. As you will lose a couple heat shields that are on the original units, I do recommend wrapping these with exhaust heat wrap before installation. If you were looking at over 400 dollars for just the uppipe, no hardware, the price was a small price to pay. I feel confident when I purchase this product, it does a great job.
It was very easy to install this item, according to all of the reviews. Quite a few people cry these days. Keep all other joints loose as all hardware should be attached (loose). Install and tighten the up pipe through ALL joints. Place the turbocharger on the pedestal and leave it Y-axis should be lined up Glue the clamps on the pipe and torque them. Once all hardware has been torqued, check the connections. The pros are The installation of shields is easier than any other. The pros are A new hardware purchase has the following cons Throughout the heat wrapping process, a heat shield was not applied (contradicting statement).
You are satisfied to the fullest extent.
My jaw dropped at the quality of the product. The installation was simple and straightforward. There have been reports of people having trouble connecting the turbo, but I kept everything loose and connected the pipes, then bolted down the turbo and bolted the manifolds to the pipes.
