Yes,I would swap a crossover pipe first,those guys just want sell stuff. I used 13my intake as well. I took apart engine completely to the short block,and then changed every gaskets and seals when assembled,just because they said it was running, doesn't mean it was running right.
 
Swapped completed,kept original harness from 13 my. You will need to Swapped relactor wheels from cam phasers and front cover as well, keep original cross pipe due to different design for EGR valve set up. You don't have to swap coils. Only cross pipe,crank sensor and bracket,reactor wheels from phasers,front cover.
