What intake are you running with your X turbo?
So,
Question for all the cool kids out there who are running the X turboswap.... What intake setup are you running?
It seems the stock RA intake can be made to work with the X turbo, but I'm still looking for details as to what sort of adapter is required. With a mini battery or battery relocation you can run an X style intake etc, but that for those that don't like running mini's and or drive a sportback... battery relocation is not a real option.. at least not with a full size battery.
Post pics of the intake setups your running with stock X turbo swaps if you got em

I know you can run a mini battery and convert to an X style intake etc, but that is not what I want to do.

Bryan used an OEM RA intake box/snorkel on an Evo X turbo. I'm guessing you use a specific size coupler to fit the intake?
I'm planning on using my AMS SRI on my X turbo swap, and AMS told me their RA intake is the exact same as their Evo X, I would just need a different sized coupler to make it fit. So that's where my assumption comes from. I'm no mechanic/tech, so don't take my word for it

You got any pics you can share?I assume a couple quick measurements and a virtual trip to http://www.turbohoses.com/ will get me what I need, but I would like to see a pic or two to help me figure out any required bends so I can have things on hand when It's install time.
