Looking for a 4" Cold Air Intake

Does anyone know a vendor that sells a 4" Cold Air Intake. I know that the stock turbo is a 3" inlet but I want to go with 4" just in case I decide to go with a bigger turbo in the future.

If anyone knows where to just Aluminum Piping for cheap that would help as well.

my thoughts, get the turbo first then think about getting the intake. Less hassle and retrofitting later. Otherwise try your local welder/machine shop/metal supply store

Yea, an intake is not something you should really be worrying about if you have the money to buy a larger turbo youll have the money to uy another pipe just my $.02

problem is my current intake setup sucks. I don't have a MAF to worry about so I want to get a nice 4" intake with the filter by the front driver side tire well. I already have a 4" to 3" reducer so it should be a easy bolton.

I think that's an oxymoron

anyone knows where i can just buy the pipes? 30-40 dollars for 18" inches of 4" piping seems like such a ripoff.

BR had a cold air kit for people running speed density, that went into the front bumper/fender area.

We are the only ones I know of that sell a 4"CAI. We use it a lot on our GT35R turbo kits. I have currently have one on my GT40R. They work well an look sweet under the hood.

in all honesty, any intake you fit now will be useless when you upgrade turbo's, unless you elect to only stick to bolt on turbo upgrades (ie something that uses stock manifold and downpipe) in the future.

the Ultimate on is a 3 inch - if you need one, I have a customer selling one he never got to install as it would have to be hacked apart to work with his GT35
