definitely interested to see side by side pics! the heat wrap alone isn't much of a selling point but if they do have less restrictive design that would be cool. can you compare just by looking at the new set if there are less harsh curves and crushes than your oem pipes z?

So far no difference! It's just to darn cold out! Z

Sorry for the delay! but the Hose that connects towards the rear Turbo is giving me hard time since its buried all the way on the back,bottom of the firewall!

It also started raining now! Z

Here are some pics for comparison as promised and the only difference is where the Saxophone splits and divides as highlighted in RED Below!

I would also add unless your Charge pipe is cracked its NOT worth the Headaches and fustation of the install which can be a PITA to say the least! Z

so there's no perceived difference other than the heat wrap?

The only minor difference is where the Saxophone splits up and IMHO Not worth paying close to $70.00 for a piece of reflective heat tape unless your Charge pipe is cracked as noted above!
I was hoping to have some better news but unfortunately it is what it is! Z

I don't mind spending the $$$ in order to keep the ecoboost community up to speed! But honestly there's so much my back can take! Z

Here are a couple of PICS of the TURBO INLET TO CAC(INTERCOOLER)!

Mike.B www.ecopowerparts.com silicone hose with HD -T-Bolt clamps can also be seen from up TOP! Z

The hard plastic ring on my OEM pipe was cracked so this just saved me $70

Not too hard to replace as long as you remove your hot pipes first.

If it wasn't for the Nipple being so close to the connector you can add a 2" Hose and call it a day! Z
