Measurement of the inner diameter of the connection at the turbo side? It looks like it necks down just like stock.

Good luck installing this without removing everything on that side of the car. Even with the flexible CTS it was a PITA.

Is MAD still planning on releasing a Turbo-to-Intercooler Charge Pipe?

I thought that's what you said they were coming out with, but perhaps the TIC got confused with the Turbo Inlet.

I did the cts inlet. it's not terrible but there are improvements that could be made to make install easier.

Hi,

We are certainly planning on releasing it but still have not finalized the final product. We want to make sure we release a high quality product with spot on fitment and still keep it a low price for you guys.

fyi.. if this is just another copy of the most etc.. make the metal inlet at the turbo come out a little further. gives people more hard metal to grab on to during the install. makes it a ton easier. fyi

This is very similar to the bigger pure inlet. They're both better than stock, but not the best option. MST V2 or CTS Turbo are the better performing options.

Check out this thread where almost all of the options are tested and discussed.

Please take measurements of the inner diameter, specifically on the turbo side, but ideally both sides and overall dimensions/comparison to stock. Otherwise, there is no way to evaluate this product. I checked the website and there are no dimensions posted there either.

Yup that's the right thread to read. I posted lots of info in there.

Also I'm not sure this is even as good as the pure since the ID of the turbo side looks like stock. Hopefully they can post measurements.
