Hey folks...I'm in the process of researching this...looks like a great product, just 2 questions before I buy this along with the metal noodle...
1 - the clamps for sale with this kit appear to be similar to the stock ones on the car...is there any difference or are you re-using the OEM ones?
2 - lots of WHOOSHING and whistling turbo noises being reported here....of course, it is WHOOSH motorsports but seriously I'm a bit confused because some reviewers of other kits report only a very mild sound increase while others (like on this thread) report a significant one....what's the deal?
Thank you in advance.
If you decide this route Jeff I'll send you the kit (boost hoses, clamps, and j-pipe) at half off for a fair review
Our hoses are lined and tight tolerance which is why we went with standard silicone suitable clamps. The end user doesn't need to crank down on everything with t-bolts to keep them in place
some connections may require some hairspray because they are so tight
as for the j-pipe or noodle pipe, most replace this when going with the boost hose kit because you are already removing everything and there is no good reason for the sound baffle on the OEM pipe. Once installed , the j-pipe may increase sound and flow a bit but it's more of making things right in my opinion. We offer these pipes for $79.99 w/FREE SHIPPING and there is a forum discount available as well
let me know and thanks for considering this option
