GrimmSpeed Aluminum Turbo Inlet for 2015-2021 Subaru WRX and 2014-2018 Forester XT

If you're a proud owner of a 2015-2021 Subaru WRX or a 2014-2018 Forester XT, you might have experienced the frustrating issue of cracks forming in your OEM plastic turbo inlet. This is a common problem that arises from the wear and tear of the plastic material, especially around the BPV and turbo flange. As these inlets age, they can become brittle and lead to serious engine performance issues. To tackle this concern head-on, GrimmSpeed has developed a robust solution: the Aluminum Turbo Inlet.

Why Upgrade to the GrimmSpeed Aluminum Turbo Inlet?

The GrimmSpeed Aluminum Turbo Inlet is designed to eliminate the weaknesses found in the OEM plastic version. With the new Version 2, there's no need to worry about fitment discrepancies between the 2015-2016 and 2017-2021 models. This kit includes interchangeable threaded fittings, making installation straightforward and hassle-free for both model years.
