It might be worth looking into, but personally I think itll be fine. It doesnt swell or expand under pressure, and with that short of a gap I don't think it even has room to. If it was swelling a little bit a 3rd hose clamp could be used just bridge the gap and prevent the hose from bursting. I cant imagine the hose being rated to less than 40psi or so, and this is only hitting about 43.5. I do agree though, safety first. I just dont see this as too much of a weak link in the system.
On an unrelated note, the ignition input mod to the MS seems to have helped the poor startup problem. It now starts up after a second or two of cranking. Maybe the RPM signal was spiking to over the set crank rpm and cutting fuel. Who knows. I did notice that in heavy stop and go traffic something is getting annoyed and keeps stalling when I come to a stop. If I keep on the gas its fine, but itll die after a few seconds of idling. I think the IAT sensor might be getting heatsoaked in its location. My normal running temp idle is currently set at about 1300 to try and prevent this from happening once I hit traffic, but it happily idles much much lower when it isnt "overheating" or whatever its actually doing. Its been doing this since day one, too. Logs dont show much of interest when this happens either. Almost "done"...almost
