Yep, I did too when I replaced the hose on my old TQW. Found out Napa
carries them from a guy on the Audiworld list (go figure), went and picked
one up. Napa P/N 7-2127 for my '87 5ktq.

When the car is stone cold, it is just a tiny bit louder than the stock
hose, maybe 5% louder - maybe due to the lack of an outer rubber jacket?
Once the Pentosin warms up, however, it is the same noise-wise. But for
$100 difference in price I can deal with it.
Also, this is the high pressure hose from the pump to the rack, Gerard I'm
not sure if they carry the other hoses or not.
