Three 2 1/2 to 3inch One 2 1/2inch One 2 1/2 to 2inch. Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violacleff Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I bought mine from roadrace engineering. They are just as good as quality as turbohoses.com. I bought my 45 deg from turbohoses. They do give you a small discount if you tell them you have a z car. Like 20% or something. They also sell them cheap on ebay. Hose tecniques is another company that makes them.

sims76 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I second RRE, I bought all my hoses and bends from them. They had the best prices I could find at the time. I just noticed the funny comment on the bottom of their hoses page... "Tuning Tip: Red is a good color for all around performance, however with a big turbo blue gets upwards of 10 hp, unless you have stock cams, then only 5 hp. Purple is best for bottom end power, mix with red for excellent mid-range. For NT cars, shift all recommendations one hue towards a warmer color. Yellow hose should only be used on high compression NTs or turbo cars with welded differentials. Proper Sticker Tuning can be a successful work around for any of these concerns. ;-P" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobythevan Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 From what I have bought, I found http://www.atpturbo.com to be the best price for the quality. They have the fabric layers in the transitions. They are at 17.50 for a transistion last time I bought them. Maybe that is not good enough quality.

260ZRED Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Mike, if you want to go local, email my friend Steve at: sales@questperformance.com He is reputable and honest and can get you good prices on all the possible hose couplings you need. I've seen his work and his products and he's a stand up kinda guy. here's his website: http://www.questperformance.com He's also a major Z car guy =) Igor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
