you would be better off getting say a perrin turbo inlet, i have heard many good things about these due to the stock one being restrictive. they are a bit pricy but have seen some other brands on the forum for around 100$

OEM inelt tube requires removal of intake manifold to install
Afermarket silicone one does not... unless it's one with all the danglies hanging off it. Those suck.

Just buy a new OEM one. They don't survive too many cycles of remove and replace, so a used one is going to be easy to split. Aftermarket is a good idea if you're going to be swapping turbos often. Otherwise, a new OEM one is the cheapest / easiest solution. Aftermarket... well, the cheaper they are the worse they fit.

^^ this. I hate doing turbo swaps while keeping the stock inlet. They are so soft and brittle when they are old, it's hard to not rip them.
Just buy new. They are about 80$ or so from the dealership I believe

I also have the Perrin. It's fine, but if I wasn't likely to swap turbos every month I'd have bought OEM.
