The huge one is for your BOV to hook up to. Then there are 2 others. One to your valve cover(that you really don't need) and the other to your charcoal canister. Is that intake cast? I'm looking at the inside of it and it looks like it's cast or sumthin. Doesn't look smooth.

Yes they all can go somewhere, but they are not needed. Most people will just get one with one opening for the BOV tube, you could get that intake, just plug the holes up. In my opinion I think the intakes with just the BOV tube look the best, no extra messin around.

would you guys prefer that or just a K&N and a kit to hook direcetlt up without the short ram?

well an intake pipe like that is gonna help, just find one with just the bov tube, you don't need the others....it just clogs your intake full of gunk. You'll notice your turbo will be louder with it. Any kind of intake pipe like that is going to help.

That is not for a turbo car.

These are the clean intakes I was talking about, the first link you have will work, you would either just have to run hoses to them or plug them up...not a very clean look in my opinion.
