M2 intake question...

Hey guys...

Will a hard pipe kit cause any problems with a M2 cold air box? I want to replace the stock pipes, but it seems that the hard pipes will not absorb the torque of the engine and may result in problems...Is this possible? Or, will the rubber couplings do the job?

Thanks...again!

Justin

Only problem with intake boxes and hardpipe is sometime the lower pipe may need a little trimming since the fit will be very very tight. This is pretty much true will most cold air boxes..

M2 sells the hardpipes as well. im guessing that the fit would be perfect with they're own box but who knows, M2 insnt well known for its perfect fits
