hoses before or after stage 1 map?

[S3_NDJ]

just wondering how much it would roughly cost to replace all main hoses for my car. its a apy pre facelift ...... what would people rocommend brand wise for the replacement hoses ? and if it is a popular problem for the stock ones to split aftter a stage 1 map ?

Damage limitation.... Whatever you can replace in silicone is always the best option.... After a map anything that is borderline will perish and cause boost leaks...

if money isnt too much of an issue go to ebay and get some, but if not get the map and see what hoses go but make sure your ready to order and replace instead of driving it injured

Sweet cheers lots of people have bought a badger 5 tip is this the main hose that normally blows after a map or is it totally random what could go ? As i know its a 13 year old car

just to correct last post the hose that the badger 5 tip replaces is that the most common to go?

would do a bit of reserch mate, as the badger 5 tip isnt really a hose its a tip and lots of people run it because it creats more airflow and is way less restricive you top place to visit before posting any more threads is the stickies

Best to put the B5 tip on before the map
