Hey Guys,
Having the same issues with the rear hose. I'm investigating replacements. SU really needs to come out with a replacement hot hose for their TMIC. It's plainly obvious it needs its own custom hose, and that we shouldn't be strong arming the stock nor stock boost tubes on it.
I kinda of feel like I was ripped off having purchased the SU boost tubes for better fitment, when they don't fit any better then the stock hoses
.
I think that yes the tube needs to be longer (about a 1/4 to half of an inch longer), but more importantly, the end which goes onto the intercooler needs to be about 0.1 to 0.25 larger in diameter. It should slide on, like the stock intercooler-->stock intercooler hose.
Here's some photo photos for discussion.
