Default Forge and OEM comparison

Default I did mine in the Roadster w/o removing strut brace

great pic, you can see how the Forge is a bit longer. Just put a hose clamp around the long end and it as a guide to cut the hose to the same length as stock.

Default I think the Forge hose is Nomex-reinforced which is good given the heat

it experiences at the turbo outlet.

Default they're all pretty much designed for that application.

Default replaced mine after this was happening. I didn't get new clamps though>>>

I wish I would have because it held well but one of my bolts was stripped and it did eventually come off again. Now with the new clamps everything seems perfect... Plus The Forge one is like 1/2 the price of the oem one...
