Well was driving home last night down the duel carriageway and as i've not given the VXR a decent run for a while i was giving it some rev's etc. Whilst accelerating away from some traffic light it was boosting nicely, then i felt a small judder, followed by a momentary reduction in power and then it went like a flipping rocket. Looked down at the boot guage and the needle was maxing out at 30 psi.
Thought this a bit strange
So at 50mph popped it into 6th and accelerated, just to see if i felt anything different as i suspected the boot gauage may have gone haywire. Well 6th gear felt like 4th on boost and again the needle went off the clock.
Got home and found the culprit:

A stronger hose has now been put on. Luckily i was sensible and then drove very steady home making sure the car was on boost etc so hoopefully no damage has been caused.
