MAF to turbo silicone hose fitment.
How can I fit my N75 valve and BPV on this hose. the N75 inlet on the hose is abviously in hte front rather than the back just like the stock one. It would be a stretch for the N75 to move it to the front. And btw, a reducer/adapter for the turbo inlet is used as the hose opening is much bigger.
Is anyone here using this hose for their RS2 turbo and with stock airbox intact? Pics would help.

That hose is used for the larger turbos due to their biggerinlet size.
Mine used with a Garrett 3071 had to be trimmed
for length and a T placed in it for the N75 valve.
With an RS2 turbo I'd stay stock, no reason to
use that hose as stock will hook right up.
Remember, this isn't a boost hose.

N75 valve only needs connected to boost side of turbo. Other port can be open air.

Trust me I have but i'm looking for a picture from somebody who has this setup.
Haven't you asked us before for something that you could have asked your supplier? WTF!

Whoa, that's the same item that got me into this predicament... =)
I posted an AF ad for a used 034 turbo inlet pipe, such as the one you have... and found out the HARD WAY that it is for bigger turbos. I think you can get it to fit w/ reducer but you might have to cut the hose to fit.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/177751.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4s6/msgs/177751.phtml</a</li></ul>

It's sad to see 034 is still selling that thing for what is clearly a "stock" application with no
mention that it takes major modification to make it work. We wound up returning it for a credit to be spent with 034 later. It took a lot of bitching to get that.

to quote the product description from 034:
"Very high quality, 4-ply silicone MAF to Turbo intake boot, large 3" inlet fits turbos with 2.75- 3" inlet.
Also has ports for N75 valve, turbo recirculating valve and valve cover breather port. Extremely rigid, will not collapse, very high flow. The finest quality, perfect for installing our KKK/Garrett hybrid turbos in all 20vt Motronic equipped or otherwise applications. "
so the product description is pretty clear about there being 0.25 inch range for the fit, and its for 3 inch inlets.
Maybe it's just me, but if I try to put a hose with a 3 inch inlet on a 2.75 inch turbo, of COURSE I will have to trim it back to where the opening is only about 2.75 inches....<ul><li><a href="http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?products_id=140">http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?products_id=140</a</li></ul>
