4mm & 6mm both came in a 3mtr pack not cheep either. but they dont make a 10mm hose for the breather to the rocker cover :(

Make sure you replace it though, just use fuel hose or something. Mine was badly cracked, hardened and leaking.

Win. Cheers Leon. They do all the different lengths too. Since I've already broken a couple might just go to town and replace them all.

Sometime after I get that cruise control fitted... :whistling:

Yeah, I ordered a half metre of one thing, 2m of another. Just mix & match sizes & lengths till you've got an engine bay full.

And what's the deal with you buying everything & fitting nothing :rolleyes: . Get that CC installed already, lol.

Might have to get some. I like the blue, not as rice as red but still nice. Matches my HDI silicon too.

Hey Theo, what about this: http://www.ebay.com....#ht_1462wt_1180

Or this? http://www.ebay.com....9#ht_1155wt_922

if anything i'd go for the second one because the first one doesnt look flexable enough but i could be wrong LOL

damn i payed way to much for the 'turbo smart' hose through autobarn :( ahwell

and NOTE: im talking about internal diameter of the hose.

now that ive replaced all the vacuum hoses the cars running sluggish as hell and sits on 10PSI and barely reaches 12PSI at higher rev's(should be 16PSI easy!!!)................ i found the restricter in the wastegate hose and put it back in and there seems to be no leaks cos its sitting on 15-16Inhg in gear.

hhmmm what am i missing ???

  • 2 weeks later...

after replacing all the vacuum hoses the cars driving like sh!t, i just wanna kick it in the c*nt LOL

tryed putting on a turbosmart boost tee to see if it helped any, seems its worse than the stock system as it cant hold the boost very well.........

does anyone know the correct sizes for all the vacuum lines? i measured the outlets that the hoses sit on at 4mm and 6mm but doesnt mean the hoses werent smaller and stretched over the fittings...........

but possibly my turbo is on the way out anyways so that might be the reason why its running stuggier and wont hit the same PSI as before.......

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
