C_WRX Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) Not sure I'll answer your question but may let you also look elsewhere. Recently gave the engine bay a wee clean, a few bits to change soon so not given full attention but : - Airbox hose and "Y"pipe are Samco - Heater Hose kit (comes with 11pcs but think only 9pcs fitted at moment) is Autobahn88 which wasn't too expensive and swiftly sent.

arch Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Give Alyn at AS Performance a ring he should be able to sort you out quickly with a Samco kit . http://asperformance.com/contact/ I have used both the companies below and found the hoses every bit as good as samco and in the case of viper, much better . I have also pnoned viper one day and had the hoses the next day, their service and help is excellent. http://www.viperperformance.co.uk/ http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/32mm-1-1-4-Silicone-...=item3ef7f96c02
Richie Cross Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 After having a few chats with C WRX/Colin...the best prices I seem to be able to find are with Viper for the airbox hose for £35 and the 9 piece ancillary kit through either Zena Racing for £97 (from the US) or with Revolution247 for £99. Does this sound right? Tried Googling and can't seem to find anywhere else that does the 9 piece kit. Still to give AS a phone. Also....can someone clear up the difference between the air box hose and the induction intake pipe please? From photos, they both appear to be in the same position but saw on one photo that the induction pipe went to a cone filter rather than the airbox?? Cheers
terzo neil Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 air box hose is the red hose in above pic from the maf to induction pipe, just infront of the water header tank
Richie Cross Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 (edited) air box hose is the red hose in above pic from the maf to induction pipe, just infront of the water header tank Rgr...I know you tried to explain the induction the other night but it was late!!! What's the difference in these photos http://www.revolution247.com/engine-blob-eye-69549-0.html http://perrinperformance.com/shared/images.../2006_large.jpg Just trying to see if I just get the airbox hose as it's only to dress the engine bay. Would the induction pipe connect to the airbox hose I'll have to pay you a visit and you can take it nice and slowly and point out bits to me in my engine bay Edited April 25, 2010 by Richie Cross
