Popular Bowden tube upgrade

As a newbie to 3D printers and a new owner of the Ender 3 Pro, I was looking for upgrades for this budget printer that would take it into another class of performance. An obvious hallmark of this Bowden tube upgrade is the more constant (and slightly smaller) inside diameter of the tube, which is useful when using a flexible filament. With regular PLA or ABS filament, I doubt this tube makes a difference in performance. Based on further research I think the best performance upgrade is to convert the printer from a Bowden tube to a direct drive extruder. Maybe I'll do it later (or maybe not, lol.)

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
