TAILORED FIT

Gaining more flow is all in the size and shape of the turbo inlet pipe within the constraints of the factory engine bay. 3D scans of the engine bay and stock inlet pipe were taken to identify the space available. This allows us to maximize the design's flow characteristics without any clearance issues or to rub expensive factory hoses or lines. This results in a substantially effective 4" inner diameter cross section taking up all available space for the most physical airflow possible.

CAST ALUMINUM

IE Turbo inlets are manufactured from aircraft-grade aluminum castings and CNC machined in-house to manufacture the optimized shapes and unique bends required to achieve our turbo inlet's massive size and airflow. This process results in optimized performance, perfect fit, attractive finish, and incredibly durable design.

HYBRID SUPPORT

Building the ultimate sleeper SUV? Upgrading to IE's Stage 3 hybrid turbo setup is easy with our turbo inlet pipe. Our adaptable design utilizes CNC-machined and o ring sealed adapter rings to fit the stock or a variety of aftermarket turbos without hassle. The turbo inlet supports the flow for very high horsepower builds and makes your turbo install easy as stock..

Turbo upgrade adapter rings are sold separately.

SLIP-FIT EASY INSTALL

There is no getting around it; our turbo inlet is HUGE! With such a massive design, clearances are tight, and the factory lower bolt location can be a frustrating bolt to install. Not with IE! For a hassle-free installation, our design features a billet aluminum retainer post that creates a leak-free slip fit for the bottom bolt making the process fast, smooth, and easy!

FLOW RESULTS

IE engineers have completely thrown out the factory plastic inlet design and started from the ground up to maximize performance. Utilizing advanced engineering techniques and industry-leading manufacturing processes, IE's Turbo Inlet Pipe takes full advantage of all available space with a unique shape to maximize airflow. This optimized design results in massive flow gains when coupled with an IE air intake system.

Back-to-back flow bench testing shows consistent airflow gains over the stock turbo inlet pipe.
The charts above details flow gains (CFM) over stock.

CNC MACHINED IN-HOUSE

Since the IE inlet is designed to fit the largest space for high-flow as possible, the machine work required for the raw aluminum castings must be done with incredibly tight tolerances. Utilizing our own in-house CNC machines, each casting undergoes multiple operations and is verified with a strict quality control process. This ensures every inlet is shipped out with a beautiful machined finish and a precise installation.

INSTALLATION

IE's Turbo Inlet fits Audi B9 SQ5 3.0T V6 Turbocharged engines without any modifications or installation hassles. The install process is straightforward and can be done with basic tools.

Fitment is not verified on non-IE brand intakes without modification
Stock intakes require optional silicone adapter (coming soon)

Install time around 1 hour

Easily hardest part of the install. One complaint is getting seals to stay put when installing, other than that very good product

A Must-Have with the IE Intake

The inner diameter of this thing is huge. Once you see how small the stock turbo inlet is, you’ll see why IE’s turbo inlet pipe needs to installed with your IE intake. I did both on my 2020 SQ5 recently and I’m very happy with the increased power and responsiveness. As I said in my review of the IE intake, the sound is a nice bonus.

Excellent craftsmanship on this Turbo Inlet Pipe, it was even backordered and still made it in 2 weeks! If you get the intake, make sure you grab one of these if you want to really hear your turbo spooling up!

A must have

It's a must if you're getting the intake, upgrade your inlet pipe. Your vehicle will thank you. It will cause you some anger because of the o-rings and bottom bolt, but get a small ratcheting wrench that accepts a bit.

Looks fantastic

Looks well engineered, but I can't comment on function. I didn't install it myself, but the person who did echoed the issues with the o-rings mentioned above
