Nothing wrong with the 2.4, mine is living and breathing in another Surf up near Edinburgh.

The hose you're talking about between the airbox and the turbo is on the low pressure side of the turbo. Dont see how that could stop you getting boost...

Roughtrax do a silicone replacement though. The Toyota one is available from Milner and is reputed to be a better fit.

Mine has been split for bl00dy ages, and requires new tape evry 3 months
