COBB 3" Forced Performance Turbo Inlet Hose for EVO X

COBB Tuning announces the immediate availability of the 3” FP Turbo Inlet Hose for the Mitsubishi EVO X. The COBB Tuning 3” FP Turbo Inlet Hose is designed for use with Forced Performance 3″ turbo compressor inlets. The bulge design of the COBB Inlet Hose increases the cross-section to 3.5” to maximize air flow delivered directly to your 3″ Forced Performance turbocharger, providing much more efficient power and response. The smooth inner walls of the COBB Turbo Inlet taper gradually at both ends and reduce the air turbulence that occurs in the factory accordion style inlet.



The COBB 3” FP Turbo Inlet Hose is constructed using four plies steel-reinforced silicone, eliminating the issue of hose collapse that other inlet pipes suffer while under suction at peak demand. While the steel reinforcement provides excellent stability, the silicone allows adequate torsional flex, allowing engine movement on the OEM engine mounts under hard acceleration without risk of separation.



Available in COBB Blue or Stealth Black, this system uses all factory fittings and clamps.

COBB Blue
Part Number: 752002BL
Retail: $115


Stealth Black
Part Number: 752002BK
Retail: $115

No and No...both of those are the stock comp covers and are 2.5". The thread title clearly states why they made the product

Hmm... what to do.

Keep my MDR aluminum intake or get the COBB inlet.

I had the stock size COBB inlet previously, but due to the FP Green upgrade I had to get a different intake.

Choices....

I have it. I like it. I can't tell you if there is a difference, because you have to have a 3" inlet for the newer FP turbos, and I had to get this to install the turbo. So... the power increases I felt were probably from upgrading the stock turbo to a FP Red.

It is a really nice piece. I did use an xacto knife to clean some flashing off the inside.

My turbo is obnoxiously loud now during spool. (again, could just be the fact that I have a red)

The silicone tubes do muffle the intake noise a bit compared to metal pipes.
