2kviper --

The "tubes" are the hoses that flow from the intake airbox to your throttle bodies. The factory ones have ripples in them and you get a better air flow by replacing them with smooth ones. The silicone intake tubes are one type of smooth tubes. There are chrome ones too -- offered by other aftermarket vendors -- check the Marketplace section of this web site.

Not a great pic, but you can sort of see chrome smooth-tubes. They are 3" with 3" to 2.5" adapters at either end. You can get them from PartsRack.
