Default DV relocation - done????

First I want to thank the guys from TTstuff for stepping up after some communication problems and shipping me my kit Fedex overnight. Thanks!

Now the problem. I replaced my boost hose and completed the DV relocation from Forge (with 007 boost valve). My cold side hose has a slight kink in the bend. I trimmed it per the instructions (bottom - 10-15mm), but it still has a small kink. I would post picture, but don't seem to remember how .

Any thoughts on removing the kink? I hate to attempt another trim with the risk of going too far. Should I trim the top?

Also, thanks again to my daughter, Kari, for all the help (and keeping her ears closed as I thanked the gods for all my issues). I think I dropped a few F-bombs while taking off the lower boost hose clamp!

Yep, trim a little on the top and the bottom just to ease the kink out

Default Thanks Pete

I also got your phone call. I am going to let my cuts and bruises heal this week and take a shot at lining things up next weekend.

Drove the car last night (with and without APR93 chip in play). You can notice the difference. I am running the green spring on my 007 valve and will insert some shims to see if I notice more improvement.
