where to get replacement hoses?
Where can I get replacement hose, mainly the ~1inch from the y-pipe to the CRV and BOV.
Also, what about replacement hard pipes from airbox to the turbos? I spent some time tonight searching this board and some other sites but couldn't find any definitive answers. If not the hard pipes, what about replacement couplers? I got duct tape on mine that has since melted and looks pretty horrible...
It seems like home depot would have stuff like this, but does it need to be high temp or something?

You can just use generic 3/4" heater hose for the smaller hoses serving the air box.
You cannot get couplers at Home Depot, trust me on this one..... Order some replacement couplers from any performance parts store, including www.rx7store.net or get some from a local import tuner shop.
You can get hard intake pipes from www.rx7store.net as well, even if they don't really serve a purpose other than adding some bling to the engine bay.

Look in the phone book - most cities have places that specialize in rubber and hydraulic lines. Ask for silicone turbo sleeve - it's silicone (high heat resistance) and you should be able to find the right size, they just cut you off a piece. Probably $10 or so.

You can get hose for the couplings here: http://www.bakerprecision.com/purosil7.htm
That stuff is great and is alot cheaper than buying pre-cut couplers.
