AMR hard turbo inlet pipe fitment

Recommended Posts

So I've only found one thread taking about this for the legacy gt but didn't find anything about fitment for our cars. My Perrin 3" inlet is coming up on 8 years old and I think it's starting to be the cause to some issues plus wouldn't mind replacing it anyways just to be safe. My Perrin inlet sits on top of the power steering pump and rests against the tgv housing asking to have a hole in it. Has anyone run one of these hard inlet pipes? Install is no biggie to me since I work on Subarus every day just would like something to fit better and not have to worry much about it. People talk about heat soak but on other forums they argue that it really didn't affect much with the hard inlet pipe. Thanks

I have heard that installing a hard inlet requires the manifold being off.

 

A member told me to avoid the silicone style because they can collapse. So, risk it with a silicone + do not have to remove manifold or get a hard pipe + remove the manifold?

I know the intake manifold has to come off I've done it a fair share of times so not that big of a deal to me I just want to know FITMENT of the pipe.. I have the perrin silicone and have had it on the car since 05 and think its about time to replace before it decides to tear a hole in it from resting against the tgv housing and on top of the powersteering pump

Did some more research over on nasioc and looks like I will be getting the AMR inlet pipe in the next couple weeks if money picks up. Found that it does in fact clear the power steering pump and don't have to do tgv deletes (even though I already have). It also is different then the agency power BC it has another very slight bend after the 90° bend to clear better and easier install. The 3" Perrin I have is the older style and have had it on the car since 05 so I want to get the AMR to clear much better and not worry about any holes since it hits everything at the moment haha. Will give updates when installed.

How do you do with AMR inlet?

Is everything went smooth=bolt on?
