Default The new 180 air intake/turbo inlet hose will be much larger then the factory hoses and will really

smooth out the air flow. It will combine the two pipes into one and have reinforced sidewalls. The OEM turbo inlet hose is very restricted on the 180. The new hose should add in the neighborhood of 70-75% more air then the OEM pipe.

Default The turbo inlet is different from the intake hose. The Neuspeed inlet <more>

pipe is different. Don't know of anyone here that has upgraded to Neuspeed's turbo inlet.
