Are these good enough to use with my RS4 IC's or should I get the APR ones?

Are you using the RS4 charge pipes? Otherwise, you'll need the APR hoses.

Only one of the RS4 charge pipes is different. But yeah, he'll need that.

Default Oh, sorry... RS4 charge pipes are those really expensive, larger charged air pipes

that replace your stock bipipe and throttle body boot.

Default Ah you are talking about the upper pipes... forgot about those.

On the lower end you need a longer aluminum pipe to replace one of the S4 ones if you use the RS4 hoses. On the upper part of mine I've got standard silicone couplers so I didn't realize those were larger diameter as well.

Default Correct Passenger Side lower RS4 pipe is longer. The Lower boots will work OK...

The uppers howerever will not fit onto the OEM Upper Charge pipe, you will need to make a coupling that acts as an extension and use two silicon couplers

-or-

use the APR hoses =)
