APR's New Reinforced Throttle Body Hose. Stiffer & Less expanding on high pressure .Also less bends for more direct flow.
I realized that now that I have a medley of small performance enhancements such us larger Inlet hose,carbonio Intake,Forged DV,Cold manifold gasket.....they do add up to a much more peppy engine on my A4. Hopefully this does give a more solid boost flow to the manifold (as APR claims)..We'll see....
Does the stock hose really expand that much during high boost??<ul><li><a href="http://www.goapr.com/Audi/products/ms_tb_hose.html">http://www.goapr.com/Audi/products/ms_tb_hose.html</a</li></ul>

well, you can only cram so much air into your intake and if it's building up pressure in your hose
then your intake is saying "no more". Providing a more rigid tube is only going to put more back pressure on the turbo which could decrease performance.
Of course I'm totally talking out my ****.

if the inlet tube expands, technically for a minute second it could cause (more)
a tiny pressure drop...but once the tube expands, the pressure will stabilize again as more air fills the cavity.
now...technically the TINY pressure drop would cause a loss of performance, but it would last but a fraction of a second.
so my take is...it won't do much if anything at all.
