Here we go , i had a a use banks kit but instead i sld i and when with the 6.5 turbo manifold amd a BOGWARNER turn with a 57mm wheel and a .68 exhaust housing similar to the stock 6.5 turbo., i use the 6.5 intake as well but modified since i was going to run a AIR TO WATER interooler, however the one i had after preassure testing had more leaks than the JAPANESE NAVY in WWII, so instead i put it together with out it for now even heatexchanger and pump water resevour are in place, here are some facts....
1- exhaust manifold of a 6.5 had o grind a few spots that would hit two injectors and also use 2 gaskets

2-I Knew the original cross over pipe from the 6.5 would not work beacuse the driver manifold in a 6.5 exist at the last cylender where in the 6.2 is bewteen the 2 rear cylender , i use it but had to cut and weld to fit for now will make new one with more clearance because it gets close to front drive shaft
3- Downpipe well since i was not using the stock 6.5 turbo can't said it would be a easier fit but i can asure a 3" downpipe would be tougth to fit at least on a M1009 so i made my 2.5 "and had to notch the frame
