Default HELP: I blew an intake hose....

I can't get the pressure above 10psi (Wett 1.0) and I hear a loud hissing sound coming from the front of the car at pressures above 5 psi. I have felt all of the hoses and just can't seem to find the leak. <p>Anyone know the most likely place the system will break first so I know where to start disassembling?<p>Thanks in advance for the help.<p>Mike O.<br>98.5 1.8TQMS, Wett 1.0, Stebro, Mintex, etc,etc,etc

Most likely the one right off the intake side of the turbo that heads into the intercooler cross over pipe.<p>

Default Just got one replaced this week....

Had a blown intake hose on my wett-chipped 1.8T replaced by the dealer last week. I don't know which hose it was, unfortunately (service guy only knew that it was an intake hose). I can give you the part numbers, though, if that will help. Email me.<p>Greg

Default Was on list for an S4 ended up getting an MCoupe ( read-on)

I think the S4 is an awesome automobile.<br>My wife owns a 99 A4 2.8Qtip and it's the most solid auto we've owned. Plus it's fun to drive.<br>My wife used to have an aversion to driving but with the A4 she's out driving all the time.<br>I wanted an S4 but the dealer ticked me off with their misinformation and Audi ticked me off with the bland styling on the S4.<br>I ended up getting a 99 MCoupe, it's fast, tremendous fun to drive, a real looker but cramped and the build quality is not up to the Audi's Standards. It will definitely eat Boxsters for lunch.<p><p>
