IC Hose - Is it worth it on a stock engine
Has anyone added IC hoses before other major engine modifications? Is it going to be worth the $ and HP gain? Does it make the turbo spool faster?
My only engine performance mods are a K&N panel filter, Lineage Grounding Kit and a Blitz Nur Spec cat-back.
I want to keep any parts with a sensor stock(ie. up pipe, downpipe, air intake) until my warranty is up. I'm only interested in making my car run better and last longer - power gains are not my biggest concern but I wouldn't want to add a part that does nothing for my HP.
I am looking at two manufactures for these Perrin or Vishnu. I've heard some negative feedback on the Samco so they are out.

Yes. One of the better bang for your buck mods. Get the Perrin or Samco. I personally used the Vishnu, but the perrin or samco's are the same and cost less. Plus, Perrin makes a quality product.

APS' High Flow Turbocharger Compressor Discharge Duct is what I am getting.
