Anyone Cut the PRL stage one silicone intake pipe down where the sense goes into it?

It seem to be sticking up way to high and rubbing against the hood. Thinking about cutting it down.

It's a common problem. You need to rotate it just right. Lots of people get stuck on it thinking there's no right way to do it.

I don't think rotating is the solution. There is a metal tube behind that and I have seen others bending it. If I cut it down I think it would do the trick. Look how high it sits. The OEM one is almost flush with the piping.

I just said "F it" and cut mine HVI intake down 1/2 inch or so. It works perfectly now. No rubbing. And don't need to rotate it. I feel PRL made it too long. Just my 2 cents.

I cut the PRL intake and the vacuum hoses to get it set righ with no rubbing.

I couldn't get mine to rotate into position either so I just about an inch off where the evap purge goes.

Yeah, I had to cut mine. Wasn’t happy about it. But been running fine.

I should have cut mine more, your install looks good.

I had to cut my vacuum lines to get it in with no kinks or rubbing.

I had to cut mine by about 1/4".

When I eventually installed the PRL titanium turbo inlet pipe, it came with a new silicone pipe which did not need trimming.
