Just started fitting a turbo smart blow off valve, and noticed that the hose that is connected to the standard plumb back outlet is too stiff to bend it the extra two centrimeters to fit onto the new blow off valve.

just wondering if somebody has some spare hose around the browns plains area that i could use, that is the correct width. have already gone around the yard and shed measuring up garden hose, but couldn't find anything that would fit.

if that fails, is it possible to make the blow off valve non plumb back until i do get the hose tomorrow, or should i fit the old one back on? what hoses should i block off if i do make it non plumb back for the time being?

cheers

i probably should have specified that anyway

need something 25mm inside diameter. wall thickness not really important, as long as it doesn't melt in my engine bay.

had a quick look around repco and hardware stores today, and still couldn't find anything.

if i still have no luck, might take a drive down to moss street. bound to find something there.

I had the same problem when doing mine, I bent the pipe a bit with a bar with the same ID and braced it against the engine bits with a block of wood, so it lined up better (wrong angle but inline) and used the normal rubber pipe with clamps. I have some more of that clear pipe as well.

haven't given that a go yet. I was too afraid i was going to snap something.

might have a walk downstairs now, see how i go. otherwise am in logan for work on tuesday anyway, so was going to pop by a couple of the shops there and see if i could find something.
