Default What hose for a T34?

Fitting a T34 to my 2 wheel drive sapphire but I know that the inlet hose needs to be a bigger size. I run the standard airbox on my car so what pipe do I need? I've not collected the T34 yet so I don't know what dia the inlet is

Thanks

the inlet @ the turbo is 70mm, airbox needs some fiddling because standard size is 64mm i believe

not sure, i have a cone

iirc you will need to slide a inch of your existing hose in the end as a spacer, and jubilee clip it

Silicon hoses squish up well under a jubilee clip, you can put a hose that's "too big" and it'll seal fine if you do it good and tight.

I'll call them tomorrow thanks

Next question, on a stage 3 how much difference would I see between a t34.48 and a t34.63? Bought a t34.63 but it turned out to be a .48

when i installed my t34 (amongst other bits) i forgot to order a 70mm hose. And trackday was coming up in 2days... Went out to the local carparts shop. Came out with a black 70mm 90degree Gates hose cut it down to the right length.... and actually still happy enough with it not buy a 'real' one. And costed only about a big tenner.

Sta1n1:- try Matt Lewis Racing for the hose 01922 692424

Patsy Palmer:- firstly where are you getting the turbo from as some T34 had a machined insert replacing the 70mm inlet for people putting them onto 2wd so people could still use there standard hoses

I bought the turbo from someone on here. I left it at home this morning so I can't measure it I'm certain it's still bigger than the T3 inlet though so I guess it's standard.
