Hello! Does anyone know where I can get some new hose from, the ones that you would normally insert the boost jet into as i've nicked mine when trying to sqeeze my old ones out with some plyers! :slap:

Many thanks peeps! ;)

Red hose would be nice too if available but not fussy!

Just get some silicone vacuum hose mate. 8mm i think.

Smithy and DTA sell it so the choice is yours :)

iff you undo the hose from the clips under plenum you,ll find theres plenty to pull up for spare,ive cut about 6" off mine over 3 years with jet swaps hth ;)

also what brian says ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

mine split and all I could get was 6mm silicone hosem the jets went in but they were bloody tight.

i used 8mm fuel hose when mine went

I'd advise you to use proper 3 or 4-ply silicone tubing as vacuum hose will expand under high pressure and hence loose you some boost. 8mm internal diameter is what you need and I can get that for you in meter lengths (in various colours).

would using 6mm hose be detrimental or not??

Not really but most boost jets are either 7 or 8mm in diameter and therefore a really tight squeeze in 6mm hose.

they were :rofl: if it won't hurt, I will keep them there

Thanks for your advice everybody!!! I'll try Znuts option first of seeing how much length I've got spare as it's never been cut before but if not then i;ll get in touch with Danny to get some new hose! Many thanks again lads... ;)
