Pretty keen to do this but i know there is a valve half way down the hose. Just wondering if i can cut the valve out of the hose then like joing it at each end. example: braided hose, then clamp onto valve the another clamp other side of valve then more braided hose to intake. Not sure if this will work or if i need to get some kind of aftermarket valve or something.

I have seen it done befor but only in magazine so couldn't check it out closely.

Any help would be awesome. :thumbsup:

The hose should disconnect from the valve at either side. Have you given it a go?

you want to do it , to make it look cleaner ?

how about you just replace the black piping either side with braided piping ? OR push the piping down , so its more "hidden" in the engine bay ?

yeah i could do that. i dunno. Yeah the stock tube for it is just a single length of hose with the valve like half way through the hose already. like the hose has been moulded around it.

But yeah i will do a bit more looking and find something to do about it.
