You know that moment when you hit the gas and your turbo just doesn’t seem to respond like it should? That’s often due to the factory turbo inlet hose getting choked out by vacuum pressure. Here’s the deal: as the turbo starts to spin and build boost, the vacuum pressure in front of it rises. The stock inlet hose, which is made of flexible rubber, begins to collapse like a balloon losing air. When that happens, the inner diameter shrinks, and at peak boost, that’s the last thing you want. Your turbo needs all the air it can get, but the factory hose is working against it, slowing down spool times and messing with throttle response. If you’re running stock boost, you might not notice it too much, but once you start upgrading with chips or a bigger turbo, that’s when the trouble starts. I’ve seen factory hoses completely collapse, causing all kinds of issues—like running rich and even stalling out. That’s where the Evolution Racewerks Turbo Inlet Pipe (TIP) comes into play. This thing is built from 6061 aluminum, which means it’s lightweight but tough as nails. Unlike that rubber hose, this pipe keeps its diameter no matter what the vacuum pressure is doing, so you won’t have to worry about it collapsing. This means your turbo gets all the airflow it needs, especially at peak boost when it matters most. What does that translate to? Faster spool times, snappier throttle response, and a whole lot more power when you need it. Features:
So if you’re ready to enhance your ride and give your turbo the airflow it craves, the Evolution Racewerks TIP is a solid upgrade that you won’t regret.
