Do all TIPs need seperate couplers?

Specifically Cobb and CP-E.

Cobb is 165 and CP-E is 210. That's a big difference. Are both of these just order them and everything you need is sent?


Both of them do the same thing so dollar for dollar..............

I have the CP-E Xcel Intake if it makes a difference.

I bought the Cobb piece. It's a well-made item. I would save your money and go that route.

I haven't seen the CP-e but also have the Cobb, and haven't had any issues with it. Either choice is going to be a solid move, but I won't sway you either way.

the cpe i beleive is a 3inch inlet which shrinks quickly at the end where the cobb remains 2.5ish and has a more gradually receding cone. please correct me if i am wrong. the difference in size has not proven better or worse, however if thinking about going with a turbo/fmic setup, 3inches is probably required for flow.

I was under the impression that cp-e had two TIPs - one was the same as the Cobb, meaning at 2.5" inlet to mate to a stock K04. The other is a 3" inlet to mate to an upgrated turbo. Again, I could be wrong too. There seems to be a lack of specs available for the cp-e part.

From the research I've done, I can't seem to justify the premium cp-e is charging.
