Looking to purchase an inlet but cant decide between the HTP inlet, Cobb, or RPMC. Any suggestions i'm leaning towards the htp or cobb but any feedback is appreciated

go with the cobb unit...it's $160 shipped from SU...make sure you use the SUROCKS promo code...you definitely can't beat the price to performance ratio..it's made out of silicone (which rejects heat) and fits perfect...other inlets are made out of aluminum piping which is okay....but you need to pay more to get ceramic coating....then the price goes up

cobb is defintely the way to go assuming you want the best price to performance

The only issue I see with the Cobb unit is that there is no flange to properly support it. Many aftermarket SRIs just hang off the inlet pipe, so with the Cobb, you could end up with the entire weight of the intake tract hanging off the turbo inlet.

Luckily the Nano SRI is not one of those, and is supported by a bracket attached under the battery box. It would work well with that. I'm considering the Cobb inlet at some point because it would go well with my nano...

They are all going to do the same thing. It's not like one will out perform the other. I bought the Medieval TIP (@$99.) and it works just fine...

The Cobb or CP-E are both good products I'm sure, RPMC & HTP also good parts. I just got a deal on the Medieval one so took a chance on it. Again, I just don't think it makes much of a difference which one you go with performance wise, I didn't want to spend close to $200. for this particular part. They all accomplish the same thing...

agreed, but the CP-E does come with things others dont, the reason why it cost a little more. To each his own, not trying to argue but for the OP i would put a little more thought into the "cost" vs what you get

but no doubt they all perform awesome
