My question is...would it be a good idea to use steel braided vacuum hoses instead of silicone and such. I have heard that they use a stronger rubber that is also nylon wrapped then steel braided. Any suggestions. I am currently running stock sequential twins...but thinking about going non-seq if I do this since it would be a f*ing hard ass job for sequential.
Thanks, Sean |
I think that is overkill. It CAN be done I'd imagine, but I don't see any real benefits.
I'm using braided for my wastegate lines... but that's just because I had extra, and it's ULTRA hot down there. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png |
Very expensive.
No good way to attach them to the factory solenoids and manifold nipples anyway. |

I think I am going to do it...I was going to spend $118 on the silicone hose kit anyways. now for attachment...I was thinking I could get fittings...small enough to self-tap themselves onto any metal nipples and I suppose I could do it for the plastic ones as well...plus use teflon tape or whatever to ensure a good seal.
-Sean And of course, like Tyson said...it would be ultrapimp. |

yup...I am going to attempt it anyways...I may go non-sequential just to save myself the trouble of doing the rats nest.

don't bother doing the rats nest. I doubt you'll be able to bend -4 steel braided line well enough. Just go non-sequential! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Dood if you put fittings on every hose you're looking at $1000, easy. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png
