Federal Hose (the thick blue hose) is what I used to connect all my tubing.

I take it your setup is a turbo afm on non-turbo 280zx?

Check around to see if there is a local hose store. Here in Salt Lake City there is an "EVCO House of Hose." It's a huge warehouse w/ every kind of hose & hook up you could ever think of!

I Know The Hose You Are Talking About, I Think Peterbuilt Up Here Carries It But It Is $2.50 An Inch, And Yes I Have The Turbo Afm, Doin It Right. The Only Problem Is The Afm Is 3.0" Inside Hose And The Tb Is 2.75" Inside Hose, I Dont Know If It Will Stretch

I had a hard time finding a coupler hose for my 2.5" intercooler pipe, to 2.75" throttle body connection. I finally gave up the search & just bought the Turbonetics coupler for $30. Talk about taking it up the tail pipe for a stupid silicon coupler!
