It's a 3" clamp but i suggest taking the DP that comes off the turbo and sanding the flange down. The flanges are very thick and it is hard to find one with a thick apex width that works. I ended up having to sand mine down on a belt sander and using a couple v-bands from a AV-8B (Harrier) to get mine in correctly.

Search my posts and i have a thread on this about months ago or so.

It doesnt work like a 6.0 system at all. lol. Trust me, I have it. The kit is a pain in the ***. If I would do it again I would have bought a setup from Josh at KYTP. He sells down and forward headers and the crossover for like 2200. Or just get some truck manifolds and make one yourself.

Do you have alot of time? You need spohn solid mounts, custom plug wires, alternator relocation bracket, steel braided power steering lines, o2 sensor bung needed moved, and the vband clamps fit like ****. If you have patience and time its not that bad but it was one thing after another with this kit.

Oh i saw that install before you did a greate job!
But the kit that i post the pics is a totally different set up than yours.The turbo location is in front of the water pump not in the side. Check very carefull the manifolds and the crossover pipe.
Thanks
