Any more details and/or tips on how to install the tubes?

Just a note- they are a tight fit. Take your time. Remove the air box bolts completely- you'll need the wiggle room. I started from the MAF tube and then worked the tube on the throttle body. Also, I trimmed a small notch into the left side vent tube for a better fit there.

Should I pull the trigger on HPS post MAF tubes too?
Hi Guys,
I currently have BERK cats, Tanabe Y-pipe and K&N Drop ins. Will these be helpful for my current config. Is there any noticeable growl from the engine from these. I also notice my berk cats are a little raspy (under load) when they are cold is this normal? Appreciate any help. Cheers-KS |

only a little, it was audible to me, but just barely. worth it anyway since you have the drop ins.

Yep, except maybe for the resonated ones, all aftermarket TP's and cats are raspy as hell around 2700-2800 RPM, especially when cold.
