Default
If it is the hose, I'm replacing it with silicone.

Default How hard was it to do? did you use a lift, ramps, etc to get to the turbo end?
What's the diameter of the hose you used. I still have some left over and a bunch of good band clamps I ordered from ECS. Have pondered doing this...just because. :&gt

Default it's not that bad once you have access to the wastegate side
i did a short writeup on this a few weeks ago (I *might* have added it to the FAQ).

I did it with the car on the ground, and there's definitely enough access to the hose(s).

The tubing is 4mm (wastegate side) and 6mm (N75 side).

Default that would help, thank you. Even a good picture of one will do. I just want to have an idea
what to look for next time I'm in the HW store.

Default No offense, but why is it OK to use an alternate O2 sensor, but you berate others for using an
alternate MAF?
