Actually, the size I quoted is for the air filter to turbo hose, and so it's not a "boost" hose as such

Retro Al is that the hose you mean?

Technically, the boost hoses are the turbo to intercooler and intercooler to throtle body hoses

like Gareth said, you will need the outer size of the hose so it will fit through the inner wing.

probably rub aswell so will need protecting.

Hold on and I will pop down to the garage and measure one of the Roose kits ive got in stock.

Edited:
Bit hard to get an exact measurement as the hoses flex a bit but the outerdiameter is around 79-80mm for a Roose escos filter-turbo hose.
