YES Hell, I wouldn't even drive the car with it being that way...

Personally, peaking from experience and having to replace the pressure line twice (own stupidity in that I screwed up the first line), I'd go new just because the lines are a royal bitch to do...

Usually just washers (TOTAL NIGHTMARE compared to the stock saddle style)

New lines usually come with them...

Sounds like he's one that won't listen to reason, hence the violence LOL

By product of combustion is water. Condensation in the oil builds. If you only take short trips, it never gets hot enough to get rid of it. it's why short trips are bad for your engine. Oil contamination.

Also, the proper way to tighten them is to length, not torque...

Yep, and you can tune with it (old trick on the 22RE's)

Nope, the tab is in the center of the band. I gotta remember where I've seen em in my warehouse, but I'll hunt em down if I can... Also, the euro worm gear hose clamps are made differently and won't cut. The teeth are risen, not holes in the band. Like this...

yes, as it's a half year transition. They're all the same, don't worry about it. Keep in mind that cheap coilovers are just that, cheap.

Only the clamps for the lower hose have em, top ones don't. And the clips are a BITCH to put back on as well. I wish we had clamps like some of the euro cars have (I have em at work). If you sweeze em open al the way they automaticly lock open, then you can push the little tab and they'll...

$40 is a drop in the bucket...

Slap your dad... Anything that you're not using you can sell to EASILY make up the cash... It's also less likely to have sensative parts damaged in shipment!

Short trips

Compressor side has tons of air running through it... The heatshields are bolted to the hot side and manifold. Dunno how your cousin's hot side could be holding up since IJ melted his ceramic coating on his turbo at one time...

IJ's oil system is(was) far from stock. His engine was built for thicker oil...

Make it a pusher and put it on the front to help out. Mechanical fan follows the KISS principal...

If it passed the block test it's probably fine... If you want to do another test, send your oil out to be tested...

very hot... dunno anyone that uses powdercoat, everyone ceramic coats it as it will take the heat and it will do it's job better...

LMAO Yeah, I lost those clips in the move. Keep in mind if you use silicone hoses, most worm gears will EAT THEM. I run samco radiator hoses hence the stock clamps...
