Thanks for posting this video man, watching how you shoved, wiggled, and massaged the new inlet in really helped to understand the method of getting it in, I just installed my new inlet this afternoon and it went in without a hitch.
Nice work. It took me 2hrs. Need to do again cos I bought one that narrows because it doesn't change angle enough to get around the corner of the tgv manifold area. I bought a samco one so watching this till mine comes. Feeling confident watching this.
Took me 1 hour and 25 minutes beginning to end on a 2014 wrx. Easy. It slid right over the turbo with no effort at all. Just slid right on. Easy job.
Just did mine and I don't think I walked away with a knuckle that wasn't bleeding but in the end totally worth it.
Thank you. I am working on an older subaru than this but I was going to 100% remove the intake manifold to do this because everyone said you had to. I am thinking I will try it this way first.
just fitted a £50 ebay one, found removing the old one more of a pain, especially when the spring clip for your D/V pipe is upside down, putting the new one in is just a case of squeeze / rotate and push in no particular order.
I found the hook tool essential for fitting around the turbo inlet, mine was quite a way off and only the hook tool worked, mini ones from halfords for £3.
hopefully being a cheap one it won't suck closed .
Awesome video. So informative for my next project on my car.
Heat up the intercooler Y pipe with a hairdryer for a few minutes makes intercooler install much easier

that wasn't very nice... :)
Ouch
Still burning
Or it’s your mom, and she filming while getting banged from behind
This shoutout still going crazy 😅
@PREracing Would you guys be willing to show an install of the inlet hose for an 08-14WRX? Is it generally the same thing? What are your thoughts.
Yeah,I'm doing this on a customer car and we're putting the stock new one on a red top manifold. So I had to loose the intake to get it on properly
Nice install! I am hoping to do this in the future. I wonder if a bit of lube would help that last step onto the turbo lip??
I just completed the installation. Never again and thanks for this video as It certainly helped
Was it really that complicated ?
I purchased a Perrin turbo inlet after purchasing knock off turbo inlets. The Perrin was not as completed to install. It takes some time to de-install of surrounding parts, but very doable
Wouldn’t removing more things around that area make it easier to install ? I’m scare I might tear up the hose forcing it like that. But good video, now I know it’s a PITA!
NEED HELP!! i'm installing a perrin intake and need to know if you deleted the *FAKE* sensor that sits between PCV valve and turbo inlet. I stuck the pins from this fake connector into harness but lost the white/grey(depending on year) piece. Can I run the supplied hose from kit straight from PCV valve to turbo inlet.
Will this cause a misfire on just one cyl? I hit a set of tracks coming home and get p0304 I did plugs coils and checked harness nothing found. Leaning towards injector or inlet boot?
Can I just take off the pcv hose and cap it? And on the turbo inlet, can I just plug it? Good video by the way. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
after watching this video, it was easy to make the decision to do this the **correct** way, and pull up the intake manifold
- just tear it to pieces
- if intake is painted you might want to try and prevent scratches
- i'm gonna cut a chunk off this brand new inlet and just ram it through everything to save me 30min
- "you can see it never lines up quite right, that's normal"
... things you never want to hear from someone working on your car
Those hard intercooler 90°s look wayyyy easier than the newer STi soft ones. I struggle with it every single time 🤣
So you used the jumper to eliminate a cel. Why would you have a cel to begin with? Does installing the new inlet set it off?
make sure you clamp every connection.. I have turbo inlet and after I got a tune, under high boost, it would make a hissing sound. Also, I like the brass fittings shown here, there's a few out there with plastic.
My OEM inlet is no good anymore. I was given a Mishimito Inlet like this one. Question, with this installed. Will my 2005 WRX STI pass smog? I’m from the state of California. Thank you for your time.
12:12 DO NOT replace that hose with plain vacuum line there is a restrictor pill in the OEM hose.
Can you tell me more about what exactly the restrictor pill is in? I have my whole manifold off now to change out the turbo inlet but Prior i was getting a code p0244 for overboost and I read in the forums about the restrictor pills and Im wondering if the previous owner changed it out by chance. Thanks
@@3DPrintable it slows the charge of air from entering your waste gate actuator too rapidly and opening your waste gate prematurely. You should be able to feel it in the line coming off of the small nipple on your turbo I dont remember if it is before or after the "T" fitting.
@@ericwiedenhoft184 I am indeed over boosting, my stock boost control solenoid had an air leak from the crimped oring head so I re crimped it but the main fix I am going to try is the Cobb stage one LOW WASTEGATE so it opens up earlier because as far as air lines nothing has a leak (smoke tested) I just feel like the car is making stupid power and is working but the air coming out the wastegate is not coming out fast enough perhaps
@@3DPrintable an overboost situation would not be caused by a missing restrictor pill, I'm afraid.
Thanks for the video. Can you say how long the install took start to finish?
I installed it today and it was pretty PITA, but it worked. I found an easy way to connect the BOV return line shown in the video around the 14:45 mark. My return hose is old and stiff like hell, there was no way to connect it to the built in tomei. I just took out the alu inlay which connects the tomei to the hose, clamped the bov return line on and plugged it back into the tomei.
thank you for your help, now do you put the pcv back?
Why do you remove the clip to get rid of the CEL?
Nice video. Do you have to get a tune after replacing the inlet with an aftermarket one?
I dont believe so. Theyre pretty much the same thing all round.
@@Luke-so4hv I found out the hard way. Yes you do, well if your ECU already has a map on it 😂😭
I am trying to access a fuel leak on my EJ205 Forester XT. It is directly under the turbo inlet. Do you have to take the intake manifold off to get the turbo inlet out without destroying it? Think the fuel leak is just a loose hose clamp on the rubber hose to the hardline right near the front of the engine on the turbo inlet side.
I have a cobb inlet that im putting on my sti. My problem is there is a extra port on the factory inlet. Wgat do i do with that hose? I was going to run a T fitting. Do you see a problem with that? Plz let me know asap if you see this in time.
Ever figure it out?
Definitely stripped the intercooler bolts on the bypass valve
What do you do with the breather side of the pcv valve?
Great video! Thanks for this
very nice sir, im about to get this tomei inlet.
Seriously great install vid! Man you power those suckers out
Cool video 👍 anybody had boost leaks using this one
At 16:15 he talks about a hose that might kink, what happens if it does kink? I have a misfire in cylinder one. I’m wondering if that’s why.
I need one of these hook tools
There called scribes
the inlet doesnt look fully seated in! is that the most you can push the inlet in?
have the same inlet same car gonna try this out.
Made that look easy and this will be my second time doing this haha its not easy
Would I be able to do this alone . and How long do you think it would take for me to replace because i have work and i wouldnt wanna start working on it then have no way to get to work.
. Scout did it took me about 2 hours first time by myself shits so hard to fit in hahaha
you said that you will not need the PCV leak detection censer but what do you do with it?
What is the silver round piece in front of the turbo inlet called? I need to buy one for my turbo inlet hose
Wish my daughter's 09 WRX was this easy!
Great vid, very in depth!
Where is your shop and much will cost?
I need to do this on my 2006 sti... not looking forward to it lol. Good vid though.
replaces stock one , with new stock one a Forrester and the book says .6 hr which is impossible unless you break everything taking it out and putting it back in.. intake must be removed or at the least loosened and raised up 6 inches
I have a Grimmspeed top mount for my 2011 STi and what I can't figure out is that the piping isn't quite the same. Can you guys do a video on where the hoses go with an aftermarket intercooler and more mods. This guy didn't even have an intake for Christ sake
hey hey hey that boost control the little hose is deleted on mine 05 sti and it does have a pro tune
I'd like to use T-clamps to secure the connections can you tell me what size clamps I will need?
Thanks for the video! This information is invaluable.
what codes will it throw for the CEL when you got a bad inlet?
How much do you charge? To fix an 02 wrx big mis fire
Why not just remove the alternator and power steering pump to make it easier?
Did you do yours that way? Seems like that would be the way to go since you would probably want to replace as many of the rock hard vacuum hoses you could then access along with the power steering pump o-rings. I have everything i need for the job - just waiting for the icebox where i live to get above 50 F!
Would a cracked stock inlet pipe cause my sti to not build boost?
Can you run IAG Street AOS while bypassing the pcv sensors?
I did the install (pain in the ass) but now I have a check engine code p0441 which says incorrect purge flow. Was wondering if anyone ran into this problem
good video, awful camera man
Keep in mind this video was uploaded 5 years ago..
neuspeed79 keep in mind he commented this 3 years ago
HOW DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH SLACK IN THAT MAIN WIREING HARNESS THATS MY MAIN PROBLEM
Nice work. But you need to fire the camera man lol
Is this also called a "charge tube"? Subaru is telling me 1400 to replace the charge tube because the intake manifold needs removed. 08 Legacy GT
Yes, called Turbo Charge Tube, Turbo Inlet, Turbo Induction Hose, are all common names for it.
@@PerformanceRaceEng Buddy, you've saved me a fortune. Thank you!
hi.there bro how.much do it all cost to install
Good video, just remember those clips are totally re-usable!
Great video, thanks!
Yo sick video thanks
Old school video. No cuts and all of a sudden the inlet in.
THANK YOU
Good job 👍
do you need tune for this one?
You will not need a tune if the part is installed correctly with no air leaks. It is very important that all connections have clamps or minimum zip ties and have no leak it is a low pressure part but it is post MAF so it must be free from air leaks.
Wouldn't be easier just to remove the manifold?
Nope, what is easier is to spray it down with silicone spray then push it in at step 11. EASY. Put a bit on the turbo flange and it just pops right on as you push it right in. Man, don't push silicone parts in dry. lol. Way too much friction. BTW you can very easily put the bov return bit in later too. No need to have it pre-installed. These gd era wrx's are so easy to work on. Try my 2000 gc8. I had to get my dremel in to trim the fuel line bracket near the bov return before it fit.
What inlet did you get?
This install is a Tomioka Turbo Inlet
I for one liked the filming. lots of close ups. I really dont want to install mine. this is such a pain to do
We were trying to get a lot of detail on the process. We also recorded and did this job in only an hour with 1 take.
1 hour are you kidding me. Man that's impressive haha.
Can you hear spooling sounds better?
Is it really worth all this drama?
Was this filmed with a potato?
That looks like a lot of work and im doing mine recently 😭😭😭😭
can you use vaseline?
Yes
Can you install mine
i did replaced this part in less than an hour. you must have properly tools to get this shit done quick
is this even worth doing? How much horsepower i can gain with this?
Its not to gain horse power, its to prevent inlet collapse during boost and as a replacement for the crappy plastic factory one.
its low pressure tho... its before the turbo
Air intakes at idle, even with turbo applications, are low pressure. However this is a negative pressure due to the pressure inside the intake being much lower than the pressure outside of the intake. This internal negative pressure rises when your rpm increases. The higher the negative pressure, the faster air is sucked in. This pressure is what MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensors read to calculate fuel. With turbo engines you pass a point where this pressure rises linearly, aka entering boost. At that point, negative pressure increases exponentially and thus air is literally forced in instead. This is why turbo cars that dyno have a very sharp increase in power towards the end of the run. If you were to have a worn out and flimsy turbo inlet hose, this exponential rise in negative pressure could suck in more air than your filter allows thus collapsing the inlet tube. Think of trying to drink a thick milkshake through a straw. If you drink it too fast, the straw will collapse. Same principle applies here. Sorry to have such a long reply lol I hope you understand what I was trying to explain and keep in mind this is a very basic explanation.
I'm late, but since this is raising RPMs and air is being sucked in at a faster rate. wouldn't that potentially cause the AF ratio to become lean? wouldn't you need to retune. not flash tune.
It would change it marginally but nothing that would require an immediate tune. A flash tune is a retune because you're still writing to the computer and changing parameters. Every simple modification requires a tune, but most people don't do it because its not worth it. Instead they only tune when there are large modifications done such as injectors, modifying the intercooler routing, or upgrade your turbo. Usually when you upgrade your turbo, its wise to do the other two because they are supporting mods. In this case, airflow itself isn't really affected, only turbulence is. Once you get past boost, your turbo is forcing air in and will do so at almost the same rate as it did before.
4:33, mine was not coming loose
Could be a great video, flashlight/camera light for lighting is not good, the white balance play is annoying. The focus is super irritating, just cut the video and edit that garbage out. Don't insert a caption over stuff people need to see.. You paused the video at spots to allow this, but at other times you did not.
I broke every emission hose
Subaru choice of clamp
Just bad judgement and choice?
Intentional choice of bad clamp to Reduce service life of the intake tube to increase after sales repairs
considering most people would not get after market and would take it back to subaru.
Much like other car companies do with many things
this video is so hard to watch.
OHH NOOO VERY HARD, NOW IAM SCARE TO CHANGE MY INLET
these are a pain in the butt to install
nice.
Was gonna try this weekend. After watching video… believe I’m good 👎🏻
fire the camera man i think i got motion sickness
Helpful, but dear God that focus!! 🤯🤦🏼♂️
absolute worst cameraman ever, great explanation but can't see what was happening so still confused.
the camera work is absolutely horrid ! it gave me a headache . other than that nice vid
Our media guy drinks way too much coffee :)
Good video, but i don’t recommend doing this at home
Rather home than the side of the road and why not just remove the manifold? Take more time but it would be so much easier
this is pain in the ass of installing it🤦🏽♂️
everything on this motor is a pita
Lol just take the manifold of takes 10 minutes. Americans... make everything harder than it has to be
I was just going to post a comment on this suggesting that removing the upper intake would solve all the problems. So it's not just me that thinks that...good to know 👍 lol.
I'm about to replace mine so you think i should remove the top manifold hopefully i don't need to replace the gaskets
@@gohardorgohome7687 depends...how many miles do you have on it? I have 210k and my intake tube is fine but the other rubber parts are hardened up. I'd recommend assessing everything as a whole before deciding. If you do remove something at least make sure you have replacement gaskets ready in case you need them.
“Non reusable” clamps 2:00 min. Just say you don’t have the right tool
This video was never in focus...Not once.
