what top hose do we use for XE's in Novas then? The original 14NV one doesn't go anywhere near. :confused:

Its not a direct fit, you need to trim it a bit so its not kinked

Them hoses are a*al rape in a pack.

I was under the assumption that most of the Nova hoses would actually fit one way or another.

I agree every 8 valve pipe I've tried never fitted, was too baggy on the stat housing or to tight in length, Roose are the way for ward and think yourself lucky its not a let, the full set is nearly 600 quid lol, I've used a 38mm temporary hose from Halfrauds in the past, fitted and lasted about a tenner iirc

You know you can buy single hoses from Roose yes? I've never bought a kit...
