CP-E Turbo inlet

So Iam paying more for the inlet tube than my intake now? What is this Soviet Russia? Fancy ass metal plus silicone design seems more price costly then performance effective....

I will wait 9 more days for Cobb
 
Chris from Cobb said, though he wasn't 100% sure, that their inlet should be in the Evo X inlet price range, which is $95.

So that would be silicon like their intake as well? $95 I could do, more expensive than the cobb sri i dont want to do...
 
SU is selling the turbo inlet for 199.50. Still way too much for a tubo inlet...
 
why dropping two hundred buck for an inlet? imo thats too much.. its not all about the money lol

customers happiness>making money (yes)

Looks to me like COBB will be beating CP-E in the turbo inlet race since COBB's turbo inlets are at most $90. This is even with CP-E releasing their product officially sooner than COBB.
 
i wonder how the cobb will fit onto the stock intake piping? cp-e is obvious they have aluminum built into the ends....but i wonder if cobb will have something similar?

last thing i want is air leaking from the ends because of insufficient sealing
 
From the looks of their previous turbo inlets on the EVO its just silicon and the clamps. I think...

if you look at the evo x pics, the stock maf sensor has a fitting at the end to make the inlet fit nice and tight

but what about our MS3? we do have a fitting on our stock turbo inlets....if cobb takes that off, how are we gonna fit our intakes onto the inlet?
 
The inlet is just under $194 shipped from SU with their 3% global discount. Not a big help, but beats $210 plus shipping.
 
The Cobb inlet is out now. They are $165 from Cobb. I can't find them anywhere else. It will be $178 shipped. I bit the bullet and ordered one. I don't want to miss this and have to wait for 6 months for the next batch, if there even will be a next batch.

Should have known they werent going to be anywhere near $95, who came up with that? Hmm blue to match the sri or black for stock look...

cuz the other silicone turbo inlet that is available, the evo 10 one, is $95

they also have a "post maf pipe" for the subarus running for $75...this is just a silicone pipe

if you ask me, the cobb turbo inlet for the ms3 has metal inserts...that is why the price went up

oh well
 
Now the COBB one is actually priced better. They both look really really similar....
 
Interesting...the top of the COBB inlet doesnt have the mount to allow for it to mount to the IC, at least from that picture it doesn't.
 
only real difference i see is that CP-e has a little tab to mount something(not sure what) on the side

they do use a different way to connect the vacuum line. Cobb you push in, CP-E u put over?(shrug) just from what i see

Seeing i have a CP-e CAI, ill most likely stick with the CP-e inlet just to make sure it has a good fit.
