EVO Sunday

[Hotchief]

Had a great afternoon in my shop with the M1100T.

Boost Tubes, BRV, 4SS Rollover kit installed.
Cold Air Intake going on this week.

Next is the 215 reflash.

Thanks MBMS and EVO!

There both real quick jobs, longest part was getting the brv hoses on the throttle body and fuel regulator.

 

[JustBoostIt]

Newer brv's are easier to install between the throttle body and regulator because there is more hose to work with. Easy breezy. Critical there is no pinching or kinking of that hose between the throttle body and fuel regular....or you'll get a lean condition.

 

[Hotchief]

I was able to get those 2 BRV hoses on the regulator & intake without moving the fuel tank.

Don't really like the 90 degree bend of the hose going from regulator to TB.
The diameter of the hose thins up on the bend, so might have to make an adjustment there.

 

[JBIZ]

I also didn't like the look of that hose either! The turn is rather abrupt and not a lot of hose to work with!

 

[Hotchief]

Do you guys think this will be okay?
Look at this bend...
Not sure how to address it as it is as supplied.

I used one of the clamps that was on the original line - installed it on the bend to keep the hose round instead of kinking. the original clamps are not that strong so there is no danger of line restriction.

 

[JustBoostIt]

You can you some careful trimming on both ends to helpl with the bends, more on the throttle body side.

my hoses were longer...

in my kit the hoses up there were longer so I was able to loop it around so there was no kinking, I actually had to trim some, hmmm wonder why the differences, also my hoses were black, not red.

The black and red hoses are the same, just different colors. Some of the new ones we are making have a longer hose so you can loop it instead of the 90degree bend to help not kink.

 

[Sage Crusher]

Allot are tight and allow to kink after one ride- just keep an eye on it
some on here look really good compaired to some I have seen on the snow.

I assume it will cause a lean condition... so I may try to adjust ours here.

Thanks guys...
Better to be safe & run longer hose, looped rather than corner kinked.
Heading to NAPA tomorrow, I got other things to keep me up at night.

Just ordered the EVO elbow today.
215 flash next.
I got a buddy with a Push Turbo M8 that needs to be behind me...

I have enough experience with Push turbos to know that wont be a problem with a 215 flash, especially once you get on a hill and put some load on it.

I actually ended up trimming mine shorter than shown above.

Without gauges, is there any way or early symptoms of a lean condition. Just wondering what heat and vibration does to these little hoses at these bend angles. It mat look ok when in the shop. How do you know.

Whats the ID and the OD of the hose I will find a fool proof solution. I am thinking a spring in the ID of the hose or a spring over the OD. It seems as though the ID of the hose may be .125 or 3/16" or 4mm The 3/16" would be fairly easy to find a spring to insert for some pc of mind.

Also I am sure JIM will chime in. But I found barbed "Y"s instead of the t that is there. It would allow for some less harsh angles. The thing I would assume to worry about there is that there is not a straight path from the reg to the manifold with a Y fitting compared to a T?
