Does anyone know where I can get a longer metal line so I can reroute the purge out of the engine bay? I know I could put another hose line in between the purge and the NOS solenoids, but I don't want to disconnect the lines that are alreay sealed up with teflon paste. I have the solenoids mounted to the FSTB, and the line that came with the purge kit is only 12 inches long. If it was 20 inches I'd be in business.

 

if u have a plumbing store near u , u can try and ask them for the tubing.. they might have it.. i had to go to a specialty store in my neghborhood for the tubing. u can use copper, aluminum or brass but the brass is very expensive and hard to bend, the aluminum is also more expensive but eaiser to work with, ur best bet would be to get copper it has the best of both worlds, for my purge i had to get a 1/8" ID tubing, and the NX kit has a 1/4" ID tubing , all kits are different .. bring a sample tub with u and they'll give u what u need.

 

sorry forgot to say if the plumbing store(not home depot or lowes they wont carry it!) doesnt have it try a refrigerator store they will definitely have it.

I use copper piping from Home Depot(yep they carry it)

page 2 of my cardomain to check it out

 

oh really what size?... i went to check when i re-did my purge and they didnt carry it... how much did they charge u per foot....i got my 1/8" ID tubing in copper for 45 cents a foot

 

Dose it have to be copper/metal ...cant you go to a auto store and get a small rubber hose and put it on the end of the metal line that comes with the purge kit and rought the rubber hose to where u want it?

 

Not exactly shure of the size, I took my purge tube with me and stuck it in whatever fits. It came in a 15 foot coil and its probably around 45cents a foot. Eventhough the pipe fits pretty good inside the copper, I added a section of vacuum hose just incase it wont come apart when it purges.

 

NISMO: oh ok so u didnt replace the whole tubing... i did, ur way works prolly just as good as swapping the whole thing out... i actually got the exact same size as the tubing that comes with the kit and replaced it with the original one so it comes out of the solenoid.. ahh same sh|t...

maxspeed: i dont recomend vacuum tubing bc the nitrous will freeze the line and it might cause the line to crack or break eventually, i recommend metal
