Re: UrQ intake hop ups (fwd)

hmmm... Don't remember the hose, it's been too long since I've been under the
tqc....  But I can share this....  When my accordian hose on the 5ktq went
(the one from the intercooler to the t-body), I thought that a accordian hose
for air flow was not the most efficient, so in addition to buying the new
accordian hose, I took the old one cut the t-body cap off and ran a piece of
2 1/2 exhaust pipe to the intercooler to ck out the flow idea...  got a
couple of 10ths on the quartermile and found out the reason it's so flexible
is that the engine rocks, the intercooler don't (oops, lost it).....  Yes
that is a place for some study, in fact the whole turbo to t-body air hose
dia. should have some more research done on it.....  If you look at the dia
of the S4 hoses, they make mine look dinky, and I'm serious ponies over the
S4.......   hint::::  the S4 hoses didn't make my car work better as a direct
changeover, me thinks more detailed work is involved here.....
