AVO 1 Piece Silicone Turbo Inlet/MAF Pipe Black

Our one-piece Silicone Inlet pipe for the 1999 through 2000 Impreza WRX and STI has been improved for both fitment and strength! While retaining all of the design characteristics that made it so popular in the first place, our engineers went back to make some minor changes that will improve fitment around the turbocharger area. Specifically, the kink around where it mates up to the turbocharger is more pronounced, for better fitment around the TGV area.

We've also upgraded to wire-reinforcing for even stronger overall construction, that will further ensure that it won't collapse even with the largest of turbochargers!

AVOTurboworld designed its inlet pipe with two goals in mind. The primary goal was to make the pipe strong enough to resist sucking shut on even the largest of turbochargers. The other was to make the largest pipe that could fit in the narrow space available on the OEM intake manifold and stock turbocharger.

Why are we so concerned about strength?

If your setup is stock, there is not much to worry about at all. But if you are running higher boost levels, or larger turbochargers, the turbo can literally suck the pipe shut and especially if you are still using the stock airbox. This situation is not only bad for power, but can literally destroy a turbocharger!

Is bigger better?

Yes! If you are planning on making more power out of your turbocharged car, you need to flow more air, period. Bigger intercoolers, turbochargers, and exhaust systems will not work if your simply do not suck in enough air. That is why we designed our inlet pipe so large. So even if you are running our big and beefy AVO turbocharger, you will not be let down before the air has even reached the turbocharger!
