These are DC numbers, so you must order from your dealer. Your on your own for the cast elbow as they are considered part of the turbo and not available separately. Not even from Cummins. I would recommend calling some of the dealers listed in the "links" section and see if they have any take-offs laying around from full exhaust systems they have installed. There was one shop selling them for $20, but they went fast. The going rate seems to be about $50 each now. Good luck.

It was supposed to be coming out but I got tired of waiting and bought a Banks 4" downpipe which also replaces the elbow. Install was easy and I spent less than $200.00. dieselpowerproducts.com......

You might consider a Banks DP as it connects directly to the turbo an eliminates the cast elbow completely. The DP is a true 4" and has a smooth interior and mandrel bends for optimum flow and these are available. Give us a call and we can quote you a Banks DP.

I saw some listed in the classified ads.

I THINK it was this site, but it could have been the other site with a similar name.

I installed my BHAF and Banks downpipe the same day and my EGTs dropped about 100 degrees! Not sure which one helped the most though. I do get a little drone now under very heavy acceleration but it's not that bad.... If you get the cast elbow just try to smooth out the inside to help your airflow.

What's the benefit of going to a 4" elbow? Is it really that restrictive? Does Banks make one for an 01?
