Fix you leak and you wont have problems duck tape is not a fix as it cannot seal against boost and any vibration will ruin it on a flexible hose

How are you liking the Ultra brace? Would you recommend it?

The Brace has probably been on for well over 10,000 miles.

I cant compare it to its unibrace counter part (which is definitely better by it design), but for the price you can feel the difference.

However, i can comment on the unibrace rear brace. Definitely tightened up the rear. Look into that too.

Thanks, just curious since I don't see to many people running the ultrabrace.

Edit: switched software
