Default I thought it was supposed to be easy!

Tried installing my new HPS intake tubes.

Started with Passenger side, and ended there original OEM.

It was like trying to light candles in the wind.

I know I'm going to get a hundred replies about how it was simple and "I got mine in 30 min".

Just wasn't the case for me.

No matter how much I trimmed, how much I twisted, how many components I disconnected, it just was not sitting "un-collapsed or pushing on ir box.

May have trimmed the vent tube too much now.

Oh and those fancy HPS clamps? Well, it wouldn't fit around throttle body portion enough to show 1 thread on bolt so I could start clamp nut.

I've installed way more difficult things than this, but this was a fine test of my patience.

1 driver side BNIB, HPS intake and 4 clamps for sale.
