I used some copper Permatex sealant on all connection points during install. I don’t have any leaks. If I hadn’t used it, leaks may have been possible. That was the only thing I disliked on them.

Does anything have to be changed to connect the GM Performance cold air intake to an upgraded TB like a 95mm or 103mm? I’m curious if the tube will fit.

I’m almost tempted to just go Kooks with green cats and keep the oem mid pipes and NPP. The more I read through the forum, the less I feel changing out the mid pipes is worth the money.
