Intake Boot Cracked - replacement?

Hello,
My intake boot cracked and has a leak. It is right where it attaches to the turbo.

My question is does this Forge version https://www.ecstuning.com/b-forge-pa.../fminlr60~frg/ replace the OEM version https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...t/13717627501/

Also what kind of modifications need to be done to make it fit ? @ECSTuning do you know?

Thanks.

Thanks for the info. As I understand it then, I need to drill two holes into the Forge intake boot for two different sensors - one on the right side of the tube and one near the turbo. Is that correct?

One hole if you have that late-model little sensor on the rights (looking towards the engine) and a little resistor needed for that pre heater thats connects to the tube on the left. Go back to the thread and you will see it.

Ok cool. Do you sell that little resistor and the housing to install it?
