FP Black air inlet question... what works

I'm getting an FP Black which has a three inch inlet if I'm not mistaken. The question is will I be able to run my current air intake (Harman Motive). Seems like all I'd need is a different silicone coupler or is it more complicated than that? I would simply just measure my inake pipe size but I cant because my car is in storage 700 miles away. I dont want to have to buy a new intake when it comes time to install. Anyways sorry if this topic has already been discussed but I didnt see it anywhere. Thanks.

Cobb and FP designed a turbo inlet specifically for the the FP turbo inlets.

Yea I wanted to avoid buying it because its expensive... I found the answer I was looking for, all I need is a three inch coupler because my intake is three inches. This thread can be deleted.

Not exactly sure why you wouldn't want to take advantage of having a bigger inlet, but glad you found something to make due.

It uses the factory MAF housing how is that bigger inlet? My Harman Motive intake is three inches at the MAF and three inches at the turbo inlet....
