breather hoses

[ashley600]

just found a spilt breather hose under the engine cover, looked on awesomes website and they are sold as a pair for £60,

anyone know where i can get just the top one in silicone.

found a forge on from DPM but its in three pieces is this right, has anyone fitted one???

Search on ebay, company called volksbits sell them for around £30 delivered

just been through volksbits site and ebay page with no luck,

Can I ask how you car was behaving with that split hose ??

 

[jonesy118]

flutter and hesitation around 2000rpm, seemed to lurch forward and want to boost early and then just cut.

yep same here, the oem is rubbish seems way to soft.

i was looking at the wrong volksbits as there are 2. one in brum and one in leicester

only found mine by chance when changing the TIP to silicone upgrade
