Anyone tried one of these or think there would be anything to gain?

Comments?

yup i know the one. it only does the bent in the pipe, doesnt go the entire way down to the turbo inlet

but i think it would certainly make a difference!!

That dolphin pipe only replaces the rubber part at the top of the stock intake, see below. If you remove the rubber part you will see its very smooth inside and actually flows pretty well.

The lower part is the issue, it limited me to 200awkw as it is only 45 odd mm diameter, much smaller than the front wheel on most highflows. I have been making aftermarket intakes for a few of the guys, mine is 80mm and flowing 300awkw on ethanol atm.

yeh I thought long and hard about getting the Dolphin one too.....as Cam said it will improve the flow but it will still be limited.

I opted to go with Scott for mine as I have a H/F and I wanted to match the intake side of the turbo to the intake pipe diameter. Scott's pipe made a pretty big difference to my car right through the range.

P.S. For around the same money as the Dolphin one you could get a custom one made in Australia that will go all the way down to the turbo.

It looked a bit small compared to the pics of Scott's. Thankyou for the comments gentlemen you have saved me wasting money. They are shinier though......

Had thought one of the custom dumps when ready and improved flow to turbo would make sense as first steps and not affect warranty.
