hi all ive just bought a samco induction hose from the turbo to airfilter ive been told that these cause problems when cumming on boost. Has anyone had any problems with these? Bit worried about fitting it now

 

no mate. shouldnt cause you any problems. if you have bought a good one then this will be fine. i went for a metal one just because i knew i could make my own and i was doing remote power steering resivour relocation. but never had a problem with my old one collapsing and i was running 1.5bar

 

Samco one will be fine mate,its only cheap ebay specials that collapse and close up under boost.I bought one from demon motorsports about £80 which is very good quality and had no problems with collapse running 1.43bar boost so you will be fine bud.

 

you might find that your cars boost is different.

i chabged to samco from the maf to turbo (x2 hoses) and my car from what i remember made more peek boost as the air flow was better and had a small map tweek,

worth keeping a eye on

 

well youve put my mind at ease a little more i was worried id spent over 200 on something that was useless. Thanx for the replied cant wait to get it all together now. The hose ive bought is a one piece that goes to a pipe off the maf then has a couple of breathers/vacuums and striaght to the turbo. Its also a proper samco as i didnt want a cheapy one, so hopefully itll work

 

Can't quite understand why someone would say they cause you problems when coming off boost, when they are
Substantially stronger/ less restrictive than the oe items. I have fitted 2 in the last 6 months(1999-2000),and suffered no such issues, a tad expensive but quality normally is IMHO.
