Install process

did you have to trim the plastic right at the end to make the cones fit too? mine wouldn’t fit without trimming it and they say it doesn’t require any cutting.

No. I just lubbed it up with WD-40 and pushed from the top and stuck my hand inside and pulled it as well. If you pull it through extra, it makes it easiest to install the filters, then just pull it back as far as it goes to connect back to the turbos.

I defintley looked at trimming it but the bend is so sudden that trimming or not you’re gonna get about the same diameter in that area IMO.

interesting, i swear i tried everything to get it to fit but the cones just wouldn’t go on it was too tight. it just seemed like my silicone pipes were a bit short, i made sure that the turbo connection was solid and then tried to pull as much as i can forward to get the space for the cone but just couldn’t. ended up trimming the plastics but whatever, they’re on now and solid.
