Title: Intercooler hoses
Post by: Craig Stanley on September 08, 2018, 08:36:14 am

Hi. Can anyone guide me to somewhere I can get reasonably priced silicon intercooler hoses please.

I'm having my stock one replaced next week with an s3 upgrade and want to avoid ordering ones from China, so any help would really be appreciated. Thanks

I've just had a set of coolant hoses from creation motorsport via eBay and the quality seems really good. I assume they'll also do intercooler hoses.

You can reuse your existing hoses, just cut out the bayonet couplers. Take care not to cut the hose itself otherwise they may become too short.

Np but forgot to say that you will need some hose clamps. I have a pair of new oem ones sitting here which I don’t need as my s3 cooler came with hoses & clamps.
