So the 1" hoses coming off of my turbo area are flayed at the ends... and they turn easily with the clamps on..

can anyone reccomend a shop like autozone or something that I can get screw clamps and some quality hoses? What diameter are the normal vacuum hoses?
Most of the ones on my car have been upgraded.. but I believe I am losing some boost because of these hoses!

Also my rear end has started to leak.. is it possible to just replace the gasket before any damage is caused? It is leaking very slowly.. yes I know it has to be put on with very specific torque settings.



thanks

If you mean the ABV & CRV hoses, you should buy stock ones from Ray Crowe.

I was looking for one of the 1" pipes a little while ago, and I didn't have much luck locally. The best thing to do is post a WTB in the classified section. There are tons of members with parts like that laying around that they'll sell you.

You can either order OEM parts from Ray (the CRV hose is a preformed hose), or go to your local Autozone or NAPA and rummage through their preformed heater hoses. You can find what you need and then cut the hose to fit. I did that for the CRV line, found a hose with several 90 degree bends, cut one of the bends out and used it.

For my bigger buys I'll use some of the guys through the MSG board.. but for hoses yeah... I'll try what you suggested. If both of these hoses were able to be turned while clamped could that cause boost and idle issues? esp while hot.. id imagine the things are leaking hardcore
