Well the hose I fixed a couple months ago failed in catastropohic fashion today. Was driving home from the store and heard a loud BOOM from under the hood, and car immediately stopped boosting and ran like a$$. Got home, popped the hood, and found this:

Attachment 2917

Note that whgile the hose did fail spectacularly, it did NOT fail in the area I fixed. It just failed everywhere else.

 

WOW, it looks like it was only a matter of time before that hose was going to pop. Time to get the silicone hoses.
