Default DRM Duct Question

Quick question, I just got my kit from DRM and it has one (fairly long) hose. Just wondering if I'm supposed to cut that one hose or if I should have gotten 2? I have a track day at Laguna Seca this Sunday and was hoping to get these installed. Thanks!

Cut the hose in half. I just replaced the hose on mine as the old one had a hole worn in it. Each side ended up being 12" long, I bought a 4' long piece of hose from McMaster Carr, much cheaper and better quality than the hose used in the kit.

I use 15" per side and get it from Aircraft Spruce. Their Scat hose is good and the Sceet is better.

Thanks for the source. The aircraft Spruce prices are much better than McMaster Carr.
