To get the full flow benefits, use the AEM trumpet. Because its metal, you will get the turbo spool sound (rubber/silicone dampen the sound)

Welcome aboard

For the EvO 8/9 its a metal tube. Do you have an X?

Edit: Looked up & appears to be for the 10. And yes, it looks like a plastic composite

Sorry, but you had orig posted in the wrong forum so didnt know what EvO you had
