I have purchased silicone hoses from Verocious (www.verociousmotorsports.com) four times over the past 8 years. They are great quality, platinum cured thick-wall hoses. They are durable.

This looks like a good package deal. I still can't believe in all our infinite wisdom (and all the support we get from our suppliers) we still don't have a definitive vacuum hose chart for Turbos and N/As. I think I'm going to go in on this one and see how it might apply to our N/A.

Sweet ill look into them sucks that that deal is out of stock currently but im dealing with a high psi of 15 to 20. So im not really sure what it is so maybe replace all lines and see if thats it

FYI the torque app cannot tell the actual boost psi. It is just guessing based on other engine management values, and it is reported to be not a very accurate guesser.

It doesn’t guess, it asks Psiri
