The Injen SES3078TIP replaces the factory plastic turbo inlet pipe on 1.8L and 2.0L EA888 Gen 3 turbo engines with a unibody cast aluminum housing that integrates the PCV inlet and mounting arm. A larger 3 in. inlet OD and smooth internal airways reduce turbulence ahead of the compressor for faster spool, sharper response and more audible turbo sound, with dyno proven gains of up to 14 hp and 11 lb-ft. Precision CNC machined fittings, a reinforced silicone coupler and stainless steel band clamps are included, and it installs in place of the OEM part with no cutting or drilling.
