Default Theoretic question: What would be the symptom if the hose between the two DVs was...

frayed, and perhaps leaking under conditions?

In other words, I did a pressure test, and didn't hear/feel anything, but the hose is getting pretty frayed out on one end, so I'm wondering with the real boost pressure (as compared to the 8-10 psi from a pressure test), it would show itself, whatever that sympton may be.

Default your LTFT's would probably go lean and you might hear a woosh on decel.

If it's frayed, go get some more braided vac hose and replace. Should be a no brainer.

If that's frayed, chances are the hose coming off the FPR is frayed too so replace that while your at it.
