Default Boost gauge pipe

What ID size pipe is the stuff onto the DV?

I need to order a reducing T but can't see the car again for another week.

Also what length of pipe is required to get from the DV to the A pillar?

i would say the ID is about 4mm ish, but fella this depends on your DV, some DV's have a nozzle which goes from 3mm upto 8mmish like my HKS SQV.

Well i can say that the standard hose is 4mm anyway. GoodLuck.

What dump valve have you got? Also get a tape measure and see the gap between the dump valve and where the gauge will go.

DV is standard, it has bigger pipe with a T then the smaller pipe is pushed inside the bigger stuff.

I would say the smaller pipe is 3-4mm ID with say 2mm wall thickness so bigger stuff is 6-8mm ID.

I don't want to order 6mm reducer to find the ID 8mm thats all

I'm only asking as I can't get to the car for another week to look and find out.
I could do with getting the parts as there is a leak on it at the moment which I need to fix.

I have 3m of 4mmID silicone pipe for the gauge its just the reducer now I need the size of.
