Default APS Inlet hoses just came!

Well,I gotta say; It was worth the cash and the wait! LOLThese things look the same, but feel like theres wire inside em when compared to the flimsy stock ones Trust me!!, these aint collapesing under boost LOL APS did pretty good on these. The only thing better they could have done was worked the price down abit,LOL!! but I guess you get what you pay for Im happy

Well hoping some of you 402 /408 guys now push these turbos higher up on boost and see if it is possibly to hit 800 or 850rwhp depending on auto or m6 and at what psi level.

Well tnt I agree 100% as found out the same thing with my car right before it went away a few weeks ago. My old nittos are a joke and will try out some new et street radials most likely and still possibly getting that traction control that posted about at some point maybe sooner rather than later.

I will eventually be taking things up likely to around 15 psi or so see how it goes once have figured out how to actually hook the car up.
