Intake tube upgrade
 
3 Attachment(s)
When I was on the dyno a few months ago I saw a ~50hp difference between the filter on and open turbo, and that was at the 650hp level. So even a 4" intake tube and filter is restrictive so I figured it was time to upgrade so I can leave the filter on all the time, even the track...

I never thought a 4" intake would look small, but the new one is 6" diameter swingit

I was cracking up the whole time making this. This thing is freaking huge, but I made it fit but just barely!

:lol:

That looks pretty serious. Where do you find tubing that size?

Looks like it could double as a city drain pipe.

Intake Hoses, IntakeTubing, and Intake Clamps

Yea, when I opened the box I was cracking up and could almost fit my head inside the pipe :lol: Its 3 times the area of a 4" pipe so it should do alright. Its especially hard to fit on my truck because of how forward my turbo sits.

I didn't realize 6" was so big...
