You don't. The kit should come with all new couplers for the manifold. Just cut the old ones off.

Use the worm clamps provided in the kit for re installing the new intake manifold. Or better yet get some t-bolt clamps.

Which clamps you use depends on the car's build date, is it a earlier build, or an later build ?

Correction on my part, the newer M3's use the newly provided VF rubber couplers however it should not matter which clamps you install.
