aftermarket turbo inlet elbow???

Post by jmfpEJ22T »

Hey everyone im trying to find an aftermarket silicone turbo inlet for an ej20g. I know that samco made them but i dont think they do anymore. I want something just like that so it wont break but i cant find anything like it.

For other people with the same question, mind sharing where you found it, and what kit this is?

Its in a kit of three hoses and i got it for about $270 which isnt terrible for samco. The part number is tcs416ind and i typed that into google and found out that rallysportdirect has it on there but it isnt available currently so then i found it on http://www.mrtperformance.com.au/produc ... ear_mm=yes

I ordered it from there but i think it might be an austrailian site. Im also confused because it looked like it charged me for freight but on the email confirmation it said "pick up" under shipping conditions so i hope they are shipping it to me because austrailia would be a long way to go..... but im calling them tomorrow to figure everything out.

I hope this helps everyone because i know how much a pain in the butt it is to find a good silicone turbo inlet for our cars.

This inlet is for the ej20g engine so just keep that in mind. For those of you with the ej22t it might fit but im not sure because i think the stock inlet for the ej22t is longer than the ej20g one but almost identical and there are hose extensions that you can use.

On the EJ22T, you have to do up some different tubing with the F pipe and the BPV. Not hard at all to do. Those are easier than making a custom elbow that fits the stock connections.

Well i tried to get it shipped but they said it wont be available for a few months even though it said it was available so i got my money back. Now im trying to look for this hose kit again but whenever i find it i get to the billing info and sense its a foreign site it wont even let me select usa so i cant get it shipped..... it is effn rediculous and im pulling my hair out trying to find a part to make my daily driver drive!!!!! Uggghhhh its so frustrating.

No they didnt have the part because my engine is jdm so i had to go to a site from another country and im awaiting stock so no its just a matter of time.

I got mine from merlin motorsport and it doesnt even have pics on there so its kind of a gamble but its the exact part number that i need.

Good luck. I've heard of Merlin before, pretty sure they're legit.
