HX 35 Question

I had a shot at getting a stock HX 35 from a 97, on Ebay. At the last minute, it shot out of my price range. The biggest reason I was trying for it was that it was down to the last day of bidding and it was $200.

Without any mods, is it worth the effort to put it on my truck? I haven't gotten a smaller exhaust housing yet and run stock injectors. The picture of the 35 showed it having it's own wastegated housing. Also, is the downpipe a different one than what a stock 93 has? What kind of exhaust mods are required to hook this up?

Lastly, I've tried several times to find out about the Ol' Smokey mount. Is this a homemade rig for a high flow air filter? Are the specs posted anywhere?

Thanks again for any help!!
