oh btw ... what size hoses do we need for our cars if i were to get them seperately. i was looking for some kits on ebay as reffered to on this thread and i found Zilch. maybe some1 can post a few links with kits/measurements (diameter of hose + total length required for each diameter)
also i take it that i have to look at the diagram on the hood of the car and those are my Vacuum lines to replace, or just replace all lines until no more silicone tubing left? (i dont have the bentley manual, but i am getting frustrated at not having it-- does the bentley manual have wiring scematics? if any1 knows)

If you're talking about the sizes for the vacuum hoses then they are 3.5, 6, and 8mm. The bently manual does have wiring diagrams.

My car is engine code ATC. (i thought yours was too, i could be mistaken) the Forge TIP honestly made a diff for me. honestly when you actually compare the OEM to the Silicone TIP, you almost want to laugh, ... how conservative.
i dont think i'd need a TIP since the 180 TT (not sure if it's specifically ATC engine spec. ) has the cast aluminum TIP? so it's somewhat prone to collapsing.

^ ya i was thinkin about it, but the piping is real lengthy.
if you read that realistic thread, i myte be going with the tuner-stop piping and just replace the core with a godspeed. bc with the tCarbon piping setup,all my eurojet silicone boost hoses become obsolete =(

yea remember i was askin you bout your hoses, well after i started the forge vs tcarbon thread i pretty much realized that those hoses would be a waste if i went with tcarbon, so i decided gonna scrap the hoses idea and just go for the kit.
as for the tuner-stop, i didnt like how the pipe comes right over the top of the engine and all the metal piping is not my thing. but cant argue with bigger IC and cheaper price. everything has its pros and cons [&:]

Well there are vacuum diagrams and wiring diagrams, maybe that's what he meant.
I got my hose kit, btw. Yup it's hose and that's about it. It cuts pretty easy and is pretty flexible without kinking. Got mine in silver to match my car.
