Just started fitting a turbo smart blow off valve, and noticed that the hose that is connected to the standard plumb back outlet is too stiff to bend it the extra two centrimeters to fit onto the new blow off valve.

just wondering if somebody has some spare hose around the browns plains area that i could use, that is the correct width. have already gone around the yard and shed measuring up garden hose, but couldn't find anything that would fit.

if that fails, is it possible to make the blow off valve non plumb back until i do get the hose tomorrow, or should i fit the old one back on? what hoses should i block off if i do make it non plumb back for the time being?

cheers

i probably should have specified that anyway

need something 25mm inside diameter. wall thickness not really important, as long as it doesn't melt in my engine bay.

had a quick look around repco and hardware stores today, and still couldn't find anything.

if i still have no luck, might take a drive down to moss street. bound to find something there.

I had the same problem when doing mine, I bent the pipe a bit with a bar with the same ID and braced it against the engine bits with a block of wood, so it lined up better (wrong angle but inline) and used the normal rubber pipe with clamps. I have some more of that clear pipe as well.

haven't given that a go yet. I was too afraid i was going to snap something.

might have a walk downstairs now, see how i go. otherwise am in logan for work on tuesday anyway, so was going to pop by a couple of the shops there and see if i could find something.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
