Cerbera 4.5 long Induction hoses

[Ulrich]

Hello and good afternoon. For a year now I am the proud owner of a 4.5 Cerbera that is battling with a set of short induction hoses that have been initially cut or a little wrong and have a tendency to come adrift from the air box.......really irritating

From what I can gather there a a few paths open to replace - ACT - lovely but pricey - TVR parts only one side available - so no good - new Whirlwind set from Joolz (considered) or the route back to basics.
The car is not mapped as far as I can gather but has the cooling chip fitted.

Now to my question - has anybody got a good set of 8 long induction hoses lying around gathering dust they would
consider perhaps selling ???



Hope that works - the car in question....

Many thanks in advance

My Mk3 Whirlwind8 with revised underside shaping are on order from the supplier but will take a few weeks to come through

Hello Joolz, I shall sit back and wait for them then

Good choice, Ulrich.

There is no better path to take than a Jools Whirlwind + Remap

Hi Ulrich

Is your problem just that the hoses keep coming off the airbox moldings or does the car not run right when they are all in place anyway? Was it re-mapped when they were first fitted?

Hello Simon,

The car runs very well with no loss of power and basically pulls like a train. I don’t think it has been mapped, and from the paper work I have and the history I found out only had the cooling chip and the short hoses added. The driver side ones might have been cut short on the back I.e. weren’t done properly I think. They simply are just very very short on the bottom side and have a tendency to come off there. Think I could go with a fresh short set or go back to the originals for a bit more bottom grunt. Might look into mapping next year if I go short again.... this year swallowed up some funds already - new lambdas were one issue which cured the 2 k rpm shunting.....
