E_S80 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Does anyone know of a hose kit such as Samco's but for an S80 T6? I've searched around but can't find anything.I've heard that the stock hoses can't take much more than 15 psi which is around what I'd be boosting with a chip. So before I get my ECU tuned I'd like to upgrade the hoses to be safe, anyone know of a kit for a S80?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volvo4lif3 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 There are none available. I checked everywhere as well when I had my s80. You could by vacuum lines from styling motors, and cut to fit. That would be about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01S80T6 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Darn, have any S80 owners made their own to fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_S80 Posted August 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Well, if that's the case, have any of you chipped S80 owners had any problems with the stock hoses since you increased the boost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVC Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I was totally thinking about this yesterday, I asked about it and I was told, no there aren't any kits, but you could build a kit out of purchased connectors and such and try and make that work.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyWriter Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 no hose problems with IPD chip after 2+ years. the lower IC hose has embedded sensors for boost and Air Charge temp; not sure how you would accommodate them with a 3rd party hose kit.

volvo4lif3 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 my 15 psi never caused any hoses to pop off. You will be fine with whatever you expect to do. Sky has many other performace mods besides ecu upgrade and his hoses are ok ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_S80 Posted August 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Sounds good, thanks for the info. If I ever need to I'll just figure out how to custom fit some myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
