Hot and Cold pipes worth installing

[FiveOsvt]

got an awesome deal on a Mishimoto intercooler that also included the hot and cold side piping. The couplers look a lot more robust. Watched some install videos and it looks like they have the potential to be a pain in the ass. So is it worth all the trouble?. Going stage 2 goosetuned for the record. I imagine the performance gains from them would be minimal, I could be wrong though.

The design of the stock hot-side pipes looks pretty good to me. I thought about changing mine out for the CFV ones, but I did not since the CVF pipes appear to be no larger, are metal so they might get hot and melt something, and they don’t have the tabs to hold them in place like the stock ones do.
