At a dyno event at DC Performance today, Dan Cragin noticed how my upper hose collasped on one of the pulls.

Here's an older post from FikseGTS saying the same.( I was lazy and didn't take ViperX advice to get it fixed ASAP before the last track event). The fix is in the old post, fix your Gen IV now"}

It would seem that one of the vendors could come up with a stronger tenseled hose in lieu of putting an improvised spring in the existing one...I would prefer to buy an aftermarket hose to correct this issue....

I am sure some one can make a aluminum or stainless pipe to replace the rubber hose. I think Xvipers has one.
