Help, Vacum line map, and hoses? please
Ok, me and buddy are going to replace all the hoses in my car. How can I get a map from some where online. Or detail on where to start with and stuff. And where do you all order all the hoses and stuff from? How long is the whole job gonna take me?
Thanks a lot for help

Make sure you slice and twist the old hoses off and do not tug on them.
4-5 hours depending upon your skill.
Youre welcome

Don't create problems if you don't already have any...

I agree with Mahjik. Removing the rats nest will be a pain in the ***. I wouldn't do the replacement unless you are having problems or you are pulling the rack for other reasons.

If I ever get another 3rd gen this would be my mod list and the order:
1.)Ty-rap vaccum hose job
2.)Down pipe
3.)Aluminum AST
4.)K&N drop in filter
this is all you need to keep the car running pretty dam good. I am not including regular service. So dont get on my back about the service issues. Do the ty-rap job and you will never have any more issues Bottom line. If done right

If it ain't broke, don't break it. That's my motto. We are all just giving advice, people can take it or not. Why argue?

BOTTOM LINE!!
I know two people who including myself who have popped an engine by loosing their wastegate hose
at the track. I noticed my car was topping out really
wierd, when I looked at the boost gauge it was pegged.
I still have nightmares..
Im now a proud member of the tie-wrap club..
havent lost a hose since..

I to think the same If it aint broke dont fix it. But these things I have mentioned above are always breaking and fouling the car up. Boost hose issues are as common as a cold. If it is running ok now! but 10 minutes or 10 weeks later it will fail.

Bottom line, we are just giving advice.
If it's not broke, don't mess with it. If you don't agree, that's fine, do your own thing and post your advice. Neither one is more correct than the other as they are just opinions.
