Message	the ID of the turbo inlets are about the same as the ID of the stock accordian intake tubes. the stock intake metal pipes that bolt to the stock turbos are much smaller and are bent and constricted. if you were to compare the stock pipe with the inlet on these turbos you would understand why I don't want to use them. --.scubasteve.-- (Rebuild started: April 2004. estimated completion: sigh)
