Do any of the current aftermarket take tubes not work for your application?

Looks like a big turbo, You could get the Forge or samco, but then you would have to sleeve it with a hard pipe and step it up to the turbo with another short silicone piece. From the looks the inlet of the turbo is very big and the silicone hose might not stretch that much

That PCV connection is needed when the engine is under boost, without it you could pressurize the crankcase and cause oil leaks.
That isn't a sensor, it is a heater, to prevent ice build up in the PCV line at the turbocharge suction.

You could try this. It's 2.75" ID on the big side, buts it's only 2" for the turbo inlet. http://jmtcperformance.com/universal-turbo-intake/

How big is your turbo?

I have the 42MM Alta turbo and NM inlet works fine. Switched from K&N.

My plumbing (originally fit GT28RS), BOV, OCC and K & N Typhoon. Custom made hose couplers can be replaced with std couplers and silicone elbows / reducers. Fittings available from ATP Turbo, TurboHoses.com, Hoses By Silicone Intakes, and probably others. My PCV heater has been disconnected and removed --- no CEL.
