If you spend time and money renewing your brake hardware and linings, it's a wise choice to consider upgrading to ECS Tuning Exact-Fit brake hoses. The premium ECS brake hoses are stronger, more durable, and better protected than the originals. ECS lines drastically increase the firmness and connectedness of your brake feel, and far better resist chemical and heat degradation than factory lines. Shielded in stainless steel mesh reinforcement and coated with bright red vinyl for added protection, the lines are available by the axle for front or rear, or as a complete vehicle set.

Stock diverter valves just can't handle performance upgrades. Additional boost can extend the factory limits of operation and blow the diaphragm to pieces. Forge Motorsports recognized this dilemma. They've engineered boost-hardy diverter valves tough enough to take the pressure without blowing their lids. These units utilize completely serviceable valves with an aluminum piston and o-ring seal - compared to the easily-torn rubber diaphragm found in the OEM valve.
