I split my stock original BOV hose...again.
Anybody know where I can get some bulk hose that will work? I think it's 1 1/8" ID, the last time I looked nobody (autoparts stores, hardware stores etc) had that size.

I've got a couple stockers laying around you can have if you want.
Might try a plumbing supply place for better hose, can't imagine you need anything special since it's just holding air.

Any auto parts store should have various shapes and sizes of radiator hose that should work for you. That's what I'm using.

AWD DSM 1,
Thanks for the offer. I pm you if I can't find anything. I had to splice the stock one to make it long enough to work with my UICP. I'd like to get a long enough single piece to get rid of the splice.
Natedogg,
I checked Advance behind the counter...didn't have squat in that size.
Where did you get yours?
I could just order a KRISS144 intake...it comes with a hose!

Wonder in the wife would buy that one "Honey I needed a $4 chunk of hose....so I bought a $80 intake pipe!"

i have the 144 and it is a great piece and you can't beat the price. i have some extra BOV hose that came with mine but it might not be long enough. you are more than welcome to it if you want to come out to B/N and try it out.

I got mine from the East Peoria autozone. The 144 intake pipe is a great piece. Well, worth the money.

I got mine from Advance Auto in Pekin when I was working there.
I think the piece is accually supposed to be a water pump hose??? but it works well for the BOV.... the only thing I didn't like about the hose that came with my 144 pipe was that is crushed and kinked in the middle of the hose where it had to turn.
even with that I would agree with the other guys on the board and say that the 144 pipe is well worth the money

Thanks for the help guys!
Sounds like the intake is a good buy, could be one of my next purchases.
Spy, I want to make sure I PM the right guy, I assume you mean Xian1G?
