to anybody running greddy profec B II

for those that uses this unit.. did you use the hose that greddy supplied to hook onto the wastegate? last night.. the car boosted 35 psi!!! scared the **** out of me.. i checked it this morning and noticed the hose going to the wastegate came out.. it seems like the hose is too big for the wastegate nipple..anyone run into this problem??

Yes, I did. I ended up buying a kit from my local speedshop that has a variety of silicone hoses. I ended up going through the whole car and any hose that I could replace with silicone, I replaced.

My current setup has about a 0.145" inner diameter hose that runs from the wastegate to the boost controller, as well as from the boost controller to the manifold.

I believe the kit was from Vibrant. I got the silicone hose Red as well because it *** more HP than the blue and purple hoses. :i'manidiot:

I used the lines that came with it along with clamps. Never an issue with the lines coming off, only the damn intercooler piping...
