Hey Guys,

What is the collective opinion on the value of turbo inlet hoses? Do they proform equally well or better than replacing your ic hoses? Are they worth the $200 + they cost? I have already replaced the ic hoses and noticed a difference.

Thanks for the input.

 

I replaced my turbo inlet hose with a perrin hose and it made a difference as far as throttle response and it seems that it helped spool up a little too. I cant compare it to intercooler hoses tough. I ended up needing to replace the turbo inlet because it had a few cuts in it so the intercooler hoses had to wait.

 

after buying/installing APS u-p, I can see the value of an inlet, BUT I have been told that it's important not to just buy any; stay away from jpmoto, Irshad at GRD (Naperville, Illinois) says they collapse under load. Perrin has a good rep, best I have heard is Samco. I do not own one (yet) but from u-p install, I would not doubt that it adds SOMETHING.
