LB7: turbo hoses

[motoking_1990]

Well today I noticed my truck was kinda dogish and had black smoke on my race tune. So I popped the hood and found a hole about 1 1/2'' in my hose right after the turbo. It looks like the hole was blown open. So now im in the market of a new one. Does anyone know of any aftermarket hoses? Maybe all metal ones or something that might add a few horses? I figure since it went out why not look into something I can benefit from instead of putting the factory one back on. Also looking to buy a better intercooler possibly if anyone has one for sale. I should have replaced it when my turbo blew a year ago but didn't.

The factory one is that long 90 silicone boot, right?

Get rid of that chit and replace the whole pipe with a 1 piece pipe.

They have them on eBay.

They don't list them to fit an LB7 for some reason. I have put them on 2 different LB7s, and they fit fine. However, both of them had aftermarket turbos, so I can't guarantee how well they fit with a stock turbo. Here is the page on AFE's site: http://afepower.com/shop/details_new.php?partno=46-20049. The thing I like about the AFE pipe is it gets rid of the bottom factory boot and makes it a straight boot.

I like my afe tube, but it keeps sliding off some at each end. Not all the way off, but enough usually to make it touch something. Have used hairspray and tightened the clamps as much as possible with the same results.

That's the reason I didn't see them cause I was looking for lb7 tubes. Sweet! Thanks guys that's exactly what I was looking for! :happy2:
