The turbo inlet part of the turbo on a RalliArt stock turbo is totally different from that of the EVO X turbo. Different diameter, different angle. All different. What ever you plan on making for the RalliArt turbo now, will not fit on an EVO X style turbo later.

The peoples here are wondering why bother to make a part that will make no significant difference for the effort now. Especially if you will be swapping the turbo later and have the part that you made that didnt really do anything now really really not do anything then since it will no longer fit...

I stand corrected, and that was a great insite. But I know you did not forget that piping can be modified. But just incase anyone did lets say I did decide to modify the inlet pipe on my RA turbo and i purchase the x turbo or better the piped I purchasse can be modidfied with a nuckle or so and bam its done so whats the big deal?

Yes, you have been told MANY times that this will provide ZERO benefit, even though you think we are a bunch of sheeple following what we have heard on forums. It is simple physics. The RA turbocharger is a door at the end of a hallway. You are trying to widen your hallway, completely ignorant to the fact that you still can't fit anymore people through the door. In any event, it is your RalliArt type R, so let us know how it turns out.

but really, going back

why would you buy an intake that doesn't replace the turbo inlet piping?

you have the intake filter, the intake tubing, then the tubing ends at the turbo

wtf kind of ripoff is an intake that only does 1 or 1.5 of the above?
