you can only use one or the other.

my ftp orings were in the box but not in the pipe. my car was young when i did it, so i just carefully pulled the OEM orings out and placed them in the FTP pipe. the OEM orings are more delicate and of a different style than what FTP gives you. before using the OEM orings i cleaned the oil off and put some tire dressing on them(wiped off the excess). i still have the FTP orings somewhere in my garage.
Oh I see my ftp pipes already came the o rings installed.

I will trial fit it with the intercooler tomorrow . How tight should the intercooler and charge pipe be?
