Question Intake pipe that goes into the turbo is cracked....

Well after inspecting it, it seems to be really cracked at the turbo end. I believe this was causing my rough idle....My question is where can I get a replacement? Can I get it in something else besides plastic? Thanks in advance,
Hassell

its called a TID, those 2 90° bends are VERY restrictive, get an aluminum pipe or something similar and swap it out! and if you dont already have a cone filter get that too, so you can put it on the end or the AFM..

Mazdatrix sells them. Or you can try the for sale section. Or you can duct tape your current one back together

for a nice looking tid..juss buy a generic honda civic intake..it should have a 45 degree bend in it...cut it the length it needs to be..attach the afm then get a air filter and bam u have a 2.5- 3 inch tid. be careful though ur boost will probabaly go up with this...also if u have a s4 u need an adapter plate for the afm to put a air filter on instead on the air box so check that out...u can get the adapter on ebay for lik 10 bucks shipped.
