While a remap will likely raise the boost pressure a little, and builds boost quicker, the cause of split hoses is being saturated by oil, which degrades and weakens the hose, until it pops Thumbs Up

Silicone upgrade is the way forward Thumbs Up

I have done plenty of remaps, and had no issues Thumbs Up

It should be noted that "lesser quality" remaps CAN cause issues, due to the crude way they they are written, and function

If you do opt for a remap, make sure it is from a reputable source Thumbs Up
