    Group A boost hose corks

    I have a few corks left over from a hedonism party and thought I would offer them for free and they are ideal for plugging holes where your dump valves used to be.
    These are used by big Phil and his 300hp bus red drag monster.

    White wheels are optional

    If you want to go full out, then take your uncut boost hose, chop it into several sections and add a cork or a rusty wheel bolt along with 9 jubilee clips to seal back up again.
    You know have a Phil special

    If these are Prosecco or Cava then they simply won't work above 15psi, the seller should know this. If you're running big boost you'll need the uprated Champagne cork.
