- Defender - Td5
Original hard intake pipe upgrade for Defender Td5 engines. Eliminates intake hose collapsing under induction, common with tuned engines and larger turbos. Made from individually laser cut aluminium cones to smoothly transition from air flow meter connection to turbo inlet.
Unlike many copies which use a sharp reducing hose causing a restriction, each segment is rolled and welded by hand - gradually reducing the diameter to create a smooth air flow. Induction air is under negative pressure and requires as smooth a transition as possible and this gradual reduction in size acts as a venturi; helping to speed up air entering the turbo. Includes CNC machined breather take off, making this a direct replacement part.
