{"product_id":"silicone-turbo-inlet-v2-1","title":"Silicone Turbo Inlet V2","description":"The COBB Tuning Silicone Turbo Inlet V2 is designed to replace the restrictive factory rubber hose connecting the intake system to the turbocharger compressor inlet on 2008-2021 Subaru WRX STI models. This upgrade addresses limitations in the stock component, which can collapse under high airflow demands, restrict intake air, and degrade over time. The V2 inlet, constructed from black 5-ply silicone, offers improved flow characteristics and long-term durability, ensuring it won't collapse and hinder performance.\n\nThe turbocharger inlet is a critical point where intake air passes before entering the turbocharger's compressor wheel. The factory rubber hose's internal geometry can impede airflow, especially at higher rates, as the material can deform under suction pressure. The COBB Silicone Turbo Inlet V2 is engineered with improved dimensional accuracy for a more precise fit at the EJ257 turbocharger inlet, enhancing overall efficiency.\n\nThis inlet upgrade is particularly beneficial for Stage 1+ and Stage 2 builds where boost levels and airflow demands exceed stock configurations. While often overlooked, it directly addresses a significant restriction point in the intake system. The product includes all necessary installation hardware for a straightforward upgrade, completing the flow path from the intake filter to the turbocharger.","brand":"COBB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687428124984,"sku":"COBB712450","price":290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/660685865.jpg?v=1784883958","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/silicone-turbo-inlet-v2-1","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
