That top piece of silicone looks awfully long to me, you might get it expanding on boost and it might even collapse on over run.

Ok so you reckon put another piece of tubing in there?

Will expanding reduce Boost?

Got to agree, sorry Merc but that's far to long.

What size is the piping? ive got loads of bits lying around you can have if it fits.

The expanding/contracting will split the hose soon enough.

It's ok People, I need all this info. I'm glad you guy's have pointed this out.

I've been reading up on silicone hoses and under heat and over a lon length they can loose Boost pressure.

I'm gonna put another piece of metal tubing in there since i have noticed a loss of boost. but not sure if this could be my recirc playing up again lol.

Will keep you all posted Thanks again people

If you've got enough piping then put it together in a mock-up form and take it to an alloy welder and get him to weld it(that's what im doing :))

Will put another straight section in there 1st, and see what happens, then decide
