Scooter Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Just wondering if anyone has a good source of the thin vacuum piping used on the sequential pipe work. The thin stuff you switch round when doing the TTC mod? I'm finding it hard to search for it on the normal sites without getting just hoards of 'silicone' replacement type kits.

ripped_fear Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I have the gates stuff mentioned in that thread, but be warned it is strong stuff and can be hard to get the same diameter pieces onto the hard pipework Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 Cheers guys, when I saw the add I recognised it from buying some way back. I've also gone for some of the other stuff in the Homer link with the 3.5 & 4.5 ID hose for the smaller vsv bits. It's those stock hoses with the very defined u bends that I think I'm going to have to possibly replace with genuine bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I found it easy enough, if it's a right bugger use a little bit of oil on the fitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianhid Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 The only one that caused me a real problem was intake side up top, it's very short and makes a near 90-degree bend. With a bit of boiling in my kettle (and cutting it shorter than I thought it should be) it went on ok. If you've got weak/soft IT worker hands, you may want to allow a couple hours to push everything into place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 http://www.glencoeltd.co.uk/sytec-fuel-vacuum-hose/sytec-motorsport-vacuum-hose/ Just wanted to post up that the 3.5mm pipe on the link (homers old link tweaked) is perfect for the thin vsv tubes (ones you switch to go ttc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
