Depends on the colour of the Hose's
Red = -10% power
Blue = +5% power
Yellow = +10% Power
Green = Puking up everytime someone lifts the bonnet and sees them..
Purple = an extradition request from the Septics and 10years in a Merkin Jail awaiting trial that'll get dropped just as the trial start date arrives.

So if I was to fit a blue one and a yellow one would I get 15% power increase

Yep I agree My 97 disco was fitted with Rubber hoses when they left the factory and are still on it. Bloody porus expanding pieces of shi ite.. Bet I'd be able to do a 120mph, if LR had just fitted the bloody silicone ones in the factory..

IS yu Fick?? you'd have to cut em both in half and join em together. so you'd get half the improvement of each one so 7.5% Tis simples!!

Sorry :doh::doh: So do I join em back up with coloured insulation tape then

Duct tape is better. but not red cos that'll just remove all the power increases..

Negative pressure? A vacuum? Are you sure? There was me thinking that the turbo charger was there to push more air through, thus increasing pressure, not to resist the sucking of the pistons.
What does "boost pressure" mean then?
The air flow is from the turbo to the intercooler, so shouldn't the hose be described as from the turbo to intercooler and not the other way round?

Shomshing wrongg shurely??
The flow is from the the turbo to the intercooler then to the intake manifold passing through the EGR (or the EGR by-pass).
The turbo ups the air pressure by forcing the air through the system so the air is at a greater pressure.
If you try squeezing the turbo hoses when the engine is around 2500rpm they should be rock solid - at idle you can easily compress them.
There is no suction making air pass into the intake manifold.- only the increased pressure caused by the turbo.
Air is sucked through the air intake pipe from the outer atmosphere - then through the air-filter and hence to the turbo - after which its under pressure.
Silicone hoses are therefore better - they do not swell up under pressure - they do not leak by porosity to allow oil to pass through them after long use - they are more resistant to splitting - so they last longer.
Only one drawback - no-one seems to make them in pink silicone - job opportunity for tratters here I think - as they are convinced every Freelander owner prefers pink.

I has me brain must be getting addled mixing with all these Mock cockerneys in Surrey & Hants.
Was thinking of pipe from filter to turbo..
