not seen any s bend boost hoses on 1.9 mjet.....

thers the 90 degree elbow(which this thread is about) which connects turbo outlet to intercooler...

then theres a long kinda j shaped one that connects intercooler outlet to inlet manifold.....

thats it for turbo hoses...

the pipe that links maf /airbos to turbo inlet is plastic, as is the one that connects intercooler outlet hose to inlet manifold

item 2 is the pipe this thread is about
item 3 is the j shaped pipe i referred too
item 4 is hard plastic
item 1 the long part is metal

A whistle isn't how id describe it. More of a screech, like if you let a balloon down whilst pulling the ends.
Ta

Item 1 on mine is rubber but the rest is metal, shall get pic

Cant find my old pipework, basically that rubber pipe item 1 that joins to left of intercooler split, and fiat charged a bundle for parts, as i cudnt get a silicone one made

Had to replace metal pipe too as if has a common fault a d they changed the setup

I have a large deposit of oil of my intercooler to intake manifold, round by the manifold area part 4. Took it off and their is slight oil inside??

you will get oil inside your boost pipesso thats normal

Oil will be everywer, breather goes straight into intake

just to let you all know, I've noticed the price being bumped up on ebay after this thread was created..

heres the same one, same model number etc £8.18

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170655574939?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

That's not the same mate, it's not fluro lined .

Fluro lined only come in blue and are red on inside

Price is £14.11, but when listing gets to like 1 day it goes back to £11.99.

I bet forges arent fluro lined

not trying to cause an argument or anything just curious why would it need to fluro lined, Its only going to have Air and a bit of oil from the turbo in it..

Fluro lined means its resistant tO fuel and oil, hence the reason I upgraded, anything after turbo will have oil in it, especially seeing as all the rocker cover fumes are reintroduced before the turbo. The standard pipe is not up to job hence a lot have split/blown/perished. I want to make my car more reliable and improve so fluro lined is best.

For the sake of £4-6 more it's worth every penny, search eBay for 48mm 90 deg elbow fluro lined, and check price of the samco version.

Asking why get fluro lined, is like asking "why remap when it gets you from a to b"

People like to improve/enhance there cars as we're all well aware. I always go for better upgraded parts if prices are feasible

Such a lifesaver mate, my pipes just split and been trying to find a replacement so thank you

I understand this is for MJet but I read you upgraded to stainless jubilee clips. I've been planning on doing this, as my TJet looses coolant a bit, especially after I've had my foot down.

I'm hoping its just the clips that is causing the leak. Do they really perish that badly?

This has nothing to do with coolant hoses, just the boost hoses on the mjet.

If your losing coolant I highly doubt a new clip will sort
