To remove the intake tubes from an TPI engine, I suggest either getting sockets with long torx bits, or switching to allen head bolts and getting sockets with long allen keys. Also, a swivel extension even if just a short one. This will really help you get into the area the bolts are located at and be able to confidently remove and torque them.

Also, just as a general rule, if you're ever having to buy allen keys, always try to find the ball end ones.

Keep up the good work.
