Title: silicone intercooler hoses
Post by: Meallbhan on December 25, 2012, 02:17:02 pm

Merry xmas all. I hav a stage 1 revo map and I dont intend to go for any more power. While working on the car the other day I noticed the rubber parts of the intercooler hoses and the one that joins to the throttle body look a bit weak and squashy. I dont want the whole kit with all the hoses just the end silicone parts of which there are 3 I think. So my question is what are good ones to get and where from? I dont want to go overboard but also dont want rubbish. Thanks.

Or for a bit more you could get the sfs hoses that are all in one piece, so no chance of any leaks.

I've got the sfs hoses too and they are a great bit of kit.
