Once disturbed, the bottom hoses can be a pain for staying reliable again.A new hose is around £30 from Pug. As for a decat, Devil are a good make if you can find one second hand as they don't make them anymore, same goes for Magnex. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

You can, but if the hose is old and the end of it is in bad condition that it will not seat correctly and will continue to leak. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |
