Message	I replaced mine before Z Nationals last year. It took me about an hour or so. I didn't have to take much off to install them. The DR side was the kicker. It will be tight getting by AC. The Pass. side is a little easier, but again the AC lines and he power steering is in the way. Take your time and look at your hose clamps so when you put them on, you can tighten them down. They Look Great. I didn't drive it much after I installed them. Once I got home I started my winter project, so I didn't put them to much of a test. Love the Boost a GOOD Z can put out!!! 90 Cherry Red TT 5 speed 90 Silver NA 2+2 Auto 91 Cherry Red NA Auto (Parts Car) -SOLD 93 White NA 5 speed -SOLD 92 Black NA 5 speed - SOLD

If you are going to replace the accordion hose, - MixManMash 08:11:31 05/02/12 Are there gains from just replacing the intake piping - ZXoltan 08:27:07 05/02/12 I haven't seen a definitive answer either.

(n/m) - michaell32 08:58:04 05/04/12 It seems the induction piping alone should provide gains - ForceFedTT (SoCal) 18:39:58 05/02/12 I havent seen those but it would seem to me if I were going - LJZTT 09:31:45 05/02/12 Silicone hoses do not get as hard as stock hoses - 300ZMang 12:11:32 05/02/12 I have them on my car... - Z_Pilot 16:10:28 05/02/12 But no known performance benefits? - ZXoltan 16:49:29 05/02/12 It is Z1, therefore, what testing? Like the testing on - MixManMash 17:12:02 05/02/12 but thanks to our beta testing, they've been improved! (n/m) - vorpalZ 09:08:22 05/03/12 Raw deal if you ask me.
