Replaced the inlet pipe, was not hard at all. The only part which was kind of annoying was getting the vaccum hoses off. I swear even after twisting the adheasion off it was still a struggle. Way easier putting them back on though. Replaced the one time use clamps (really honda?) with reusable ones so when I upgrade in the future it I won't have to get the dremel out. It was also cool to see the intake side of the turbo, lil snail guy.

Yeah those permanent clamps were the biggest damn pain. Replaced them all with screw in ones. Took me around 3 hours to take off, try to put on the PLM and then put the stock one back on. I can probably take it off in about 15 minutes now. LOL

Even more insane, I looked up just the rubber piece that connects between the pipe and the inlet on the low side. The damn rubber piece alone is over $100 with those 2 clamps.
