my boost tubing I discovered, became brittle and broke in the engine compartment. I need to splice in a repair section.

I have some left over waste gate air hose from an old Banks waste gate actuator kit from my R.I.P Cummins, Can I use this rubber tubing?

I would assume this would hold up better than the nylon tubing?

:confused:

Sounds like a good time to upgrade to a Bank's hot pipe.

IF you are reffering to the IC hot pipe. I am in the process of installing the Banks Hot Pipe and the Insulated Banks Cold pipe along with intalling a Banks intake with super scoop, Banks Power pack, ATS deep tranny pan and a Mag HY-Tec diff. cover.

I discovered the boost tube when I was running my thermo Couple wiring.

I am not going to replace the entire boost tubing. That is way to much a PIA.

What part of your boost tubing is bad?

If you are replacing the hot pipe (between the turbo and intercooler) and cold side boost tubing between the intercooler and intake, what else is there?
