Laminar inflow into a turbulent domain

$

I have a 3D geometry in which turbulent flow develops downstream, but the inlet to the domain is a pipe that has laminar inflow. The turbulence physics interfaces do not have a laminar inflow boundary condition like the laminar flow interface does. What is the best way to apply a laminar inflow condition in this case?

In the distant past (pre-3.5) I was able to solve Poisson's equation on a disk to get the laminar profile and then couple that to the inlet boundary. I cannot figure out how to do that in 4.3a.

Any help would be appreciated.
