Silicon Intake Inlet

Not quite as much of a looks improvement as the F chassis B58 inlet but still a pretty nice improvement.

So it doesn't actually replace the whole intake pipe down to the turbo? Why would you only replace half of the intake pipe? It looks like a nice piece just not sure what I'm missing

To clean up the look in the engine bay and remove the sound isolator.

So I agree with this - just received my FTP intake pipe from Mike at x-ph and it is a really nice quality piece. I will be pairing it with my BMS stock air box muffler delete and my dry drop in filter.

Do either (Or both) of these options work with aftermarket intakes? Have a Dinan CIA and want to replace the inlet next.

Garage List
The FTP intake pipe connects to the stock air box just after the sensor. So depending on how the Dinan is air box is set up, you can fit an aftermarket intake pipe in there. I'm not too knowledgeable of the Dinan CIA to say for sure.
