Kind of a pain to install but definitely worth it, the tube is very sturdy. I had a problem with the tube popping off after install that shut my entire car down... my bad. Beware of that also.

I liked the heftier construction of the CS tube compared to the OEM one, and it looks great once in place. That said, I agree with other reviews here: A) the OEM clamp up by the throttle body looked like it was purposely installed to make it nearly impossible to remove, and B) you need small hands and arms to do this. By the time I was finished my forearms and knuckles looked like I'd been in a fight. I guess I was, and the car won!

I installed it, the low speed throttle response is more sensitive

The boost tube is definitely a lot heftier than the stock tube. I was surprised how easily you could collapse the OEM one. The install wasn't too bad, but it's very tight for anyone with medium to larger arms/hands. My knuckles, hands & forearms got beaten up during the process.
Feels like it may have a little more throttle response, but I haven't done any real hard runs with it yet. I got it for more steady boost levels, and for future proofing...with bigger mods down the road. And for only $90, not a bad mod, IMO.

Better build quality than the original. Now they need to just release a turbo inlet pipe and tubing to replace the rest of the factory intercooler piping for those of us who do not wish to buy a new IC nor need one.

I could definitely feel the difference in throttle response at lower RPMs. I also have the CorkSport Cat-back Exhaust and Short Ram Intake installed. The OEM is so thin and flexible, I literally hold the end, blow into it and watch it expand. If you’re a guy with bigger arms and hands it is difficult to almost impossible access the Boost Tube location in the engine compartment following the provided instructions. Enlisting the help of a friend who can work in tight spaces could be a big help. Also, my OEM hose clamps were in the worst possible position to loosen them. When I did get a ratchet on them, I only had one click of ratchet movement. I am satisfied with the purchase and I am looking forward to the release of the Front Mount Intercooler Kit.
