Great staff man, the car will be a beast for sure. Why don't you change the I/Cs hoses to some silicone ones? You might blow those

The venair "silicone hoses" were very good, but the overall finish was not! They poped of a cuple of times and gave me a headaik. So i replaced them with a set from vividracing that comes with heavy duty clamps that will never come loose.

I have tried to install the new silicone hoses from vivid today but they are worse than the previous ones i had

They just don't fit

that's horrible bro ! i know what it feels like when u order something and it doesn't fit .. Does the silicon needs to be adjusted or cut or the whole thing doesn't fit?

thanks ysfg35! i will let you know in a bout a week.

milou - sorry to hear of your inconveniences with the i/c hoses. I'm just gonna stick to factory hoses unless Todd tells me otherwise. Its already a challenge putting this kit on. I just want to finish it up and drive it.

milou - as we already discussed in PM, send me pictures to my email of them "not fitting". Instead of bashing them here, I can help you. Have sold many many sets of these and I do know you bought them months ago so not sure the issue. Here are pictures of them fitted -
