EA888.3 intake can be pictured in few different sections combined together:

1. Air scoop behind your front grill. Collects fresh air mass and leads it to your air filter box.
2. Air filter box and air filter element
3. Intake hose between air filter box and turbo inlet
4. Turbo inlet elbow, a 90-degree piece that leads airflow to your IS38 turbo compressor.

While all of these are beneficial upgrades, the most critical ones are the filter box and the turbo inlet. With these the gains can be up to 10 to 20hp compared to stock intake, depending on your setup.
