Title: Samco Hose Kit?
Post by: Betty02 on March 18, 2011, 02:20:39 pm

Anyone on here running an after market hose kit? What's the benefits?

Tempted to get one and then I also like things to look good, I have a reflex Silver GTi and can't decide on the colour! (Providing they are worth the upgrade) choices are -

Simple gloss black -

Red (match grille detailing) -

Metallic Silver (match Car) -

Also anyone got a kit I'm sure they won't mind whoring some pictures :D

Thanks
Simon

Various companies make various kits I think, so think Forge do an IC kit, SFS do an intake and coolant kit.

I think anyway.
