Forge 5 Piece Boost Hose Kit Group Buy Feeler

[ryanr32]

Yep recieved today cheers!

Fitted the 3 top hoses, the turbo to rigid pipe is a bit of a pain! Had to push it on over the stopper bit on the rigid pipe for it to fit without kinking 

Will do the intercooler and throttle body pipe on saturday

Ha-ha - It's a right biatch, ain't it??!!   I just chopped 10mm off the longest side of the pipe!

ivor thats cheating!
 i tried againt today to fit the b!tch but had no luck (lots of c & b's flying round)! going have 1 more go tomoz!

Yes, the air was quite blue in my work car park yesterday, LOL!

God only knows why Forge didn't flare the one end out more!

ps. I used a bit of brake pad paste to pursuade it on, LOL.

pps. Don't cut it until you've measured it against your own standard hose, folks.

Fitted the other 2 pipes today. Still leaves one original pipe though as i suspected. Theres a hose which connects the rigid pipe to the pancake pipe which isn't replaced?  Why they didn't make a 6 piece kit I don't know?

Anyway, seem to get more of a grunt noise from the new inlet mainifold pipe which sounds pretty good

Did all mine today. Took longer than i thought bit tricky.

Put it all back together bumper on ect. Drove down the road opened it up a bit in second and loud hisss and no power 

Took off the bumper again to find the bottom hose had come off - i prob didn't tighten it enough TBH 

All done now and i can notice the difference as you say sam bit louder when to boot it

Rich if you rev it with the throttle body whilst under the bonnet, does it sounds like the extra noise is coming from down near the headlight? Almost a bit raspy! 

Could do with a boost guage really as I wasn't sure if it may be a leak but i'm pretty confident the clamps are all pukka!

The inlet manifold pipe was a bit of a pain to get right without it kinking too, had to spin it around a bit here and there so it didn't kink up!

I did 2 & 5 this afternoon, if you release the intercooler you get enough play to get them on relativly easily

i found getting if over the throttle body the hardest part. everytime i pushes a bit on another part wasnt over the lip, it was BOLLOX!!! it still aint even on properly i opened the bonnet today and the jubilee clip had slipped off and it has moved down a lottle bit. but i sprayed some WD-40 on the jubilee clip and made it really reall tight after pushing the hose on as far as possible lol
