I remember a post where there was a link to a company that sold boost tubes but I can not find that company now. I want to buy boost tubes but don't want to pay $90 from SU. Does anyone have the link to a site where they sell tubes? Would this company know the size and bends that the MS3 uses? Seems I read somewhere that the tubes can be had for around $50. I googled but can't find the site that was talked about.

I'm about to change out my plugs to one step colder and want to do the boost tubes while I have the intercooler off.


Thanks.

http://www.hosetechniques.com/ is the link from a thread on the other forums labelled 'Boost tubes". I think that you need to know the sizes though. They do dicsuss the sizes/dimensions in the thread, too but I don't know for sure so I don't want to give you bad info.

Good luck

i would just get better clamps. you are essentially replace the tubes with the same thing.

I found that the tubes and couplers that www.stylinmotors.com makes are very good. Much thicker wall than the ones from hoseteckniqe. highly reccommend them.

There will be a GB soon going on on a different forum for boost tubes around 50 bucks a set

+1 if you want to take the inexpensive route. T-bolt clamps will hold the tubes better than crappy OEM worm clamps.

Where do I buy some T clamps BTW, and what sizes do we need?

I got mine from summitracing, but I don't remember the sizes. You can always measure your tubes. :)
