Are you wanting to replace just the intake tubing, or want a full intake system?
If so, there's a large amount of intake choices from the aftermarket realm.

If you desire OEM components, the factory JCW hard plastic intake tubing is a great OEM upgrade.

Yep if you are going to stick with OEM get the hard plastic JCW intake piping.

I have a m7 super asg intake on it now but the turbo inlet pipe is cracked at the part that attaches to turbo. So do you guys reccomend one part over the others with this intake?!

The OEM JCW intake tube is rigid plastic and doesn't have the ridges that can cause air turbulence.
