Question for those with the Dejon intake.

Im just wondering what you guys think of the coupling that came with the Dejon intake. I was looking around on Summitracing.com and found some much more durable looking couplings for only $30. heres one:

Has anybody else replaced this coupling, or are you just using what it came with? For those who don't have one, the coupling it came with is basically one large diameter piece to fit the intake, with a smaller diameter piece placed into the larger one to go onto the turbo. I dont know if my description makes sense but I tried haha...

I still have the one it came with on there. It is kinda ghetto rigged if you ask me but I just made sure I put it on as far as it would go and I clamped it uptight no issues so far. Just make sure you bend the bolt for the stock airbox out of the way and put someting between the AC line and the intake or it will rub when the engine moves.

Yah thats what I did. I got underneath the car and made sure the coupling was as far on as possible, then clamped the heck out of it. I put a piece of 1/4" hose over the stock airbox bolt. I did notice the intake pinching a hose against the engine, no too bad though. I gotta take another look and see what it is.
