Anyway he was talking about cutting it to be more circular in order to have smoother flow through the elbow. He wasn't saying it was necessary for the intakes to function.

The section of the radiator support he is speaking of is definitely NOT round and would have to be cut if you wanted it to accommodate a round silicone bend without deforming it from round.

The section in question certainly is not round and certainly unbolts and comes right out. After which, the silicone elbow has plenty of room and is not compressed at all. That is how I installed mine and others as well.

Doubt me still? Look at Photo #4 above... Guess what those bolts attach to...

Maybe I have a special high performance, ease of upgrade model whereas you don't.
